I'd like to see this too:

  ls -ld /etc/php/?.?/apache2/conf.d/20-mythweb.ini

Then see if this helps:

  sudo cp /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/20-mythweb.ini /etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d/20-mythweb.ini
  # MAYBE: a2enmod php${CURRENT_PHP_VERSION},  # mythweb.postinst does this but sends output to /dev/null
  sudo systemctl restart apache2.service

See if more channels appear in mythweb.
