possible to upgrade from postgresl-9.4 to postgreslql-9.6 in jessie if
postgis is used in a database. Please consider adding the requested
package to jessie-backports.

As discussed previously on the pkg-grass-devel lists [0]:

"
 The upgrade scenario is not supported by the Debian package, and is
 unlikely to become supported.

The package in Debian is only build against a single postgresql version.

 This problem with upgrades is a known issue, and is something is
 upstream is working on but no solution is available yet.

If you have sufficiently large database that reimporting the data in new
 database is not a viable option, you're better of building postgis
 yourself.
