I was able to install it using the ./install method, but had to do this:

Create a file in /etc/php/7.2/mods-available called phalcon.ini with the content as:
extension=phalcon.so

Then run the command:
ln -s /etc/php/7.2/mods-available/phalcon.ini /etc/php/7.2/cli/conf.d/50-phalcon.ini

Doing this it will create a symbolic link to the file you just created, to be loaded with priority 50, or in other words, it will be the last extension loaded so you should not have any conflicts when starting the php service.

Those are the same steps that I do for all install methods after it has successfully built. My problem was that the build process hung for a very long time and then failed.

Implemented.
