Unsupported
The PostgreSQL server, and the extensions that run inside it, needs a System V shared memory segment even when set to use mmap, and Android refuses it (initdb fails on a device, with and without Breadstick's shared-memory library).

About postgresql-17-postgis-3
From Debian's package description
PostGIS adds support for geographic objects to the PostgreSQL object-relational database. In effect, PostGIS "spatially enables" the PostgreSQL server, allowing it to be used as a backend spatial database for geographic information systems (GIS), much like ESRI's SDE or Oracle's Spatial extension. PostGIS follows the OpenGIS "Simple Features Specification for SQL".
