While it's true that Debian doesn't tend to have the latest and
greatest in stable (even right at the time stable comes out), the
PostgreSQL maintainer (Oliver Elphick) for Debian is very quick to
release .debs for stable for the most recent PostgreSQL release.  So
the notoriety is not justified in this case.  And one might argue
that the strong stability of Debian's stable release is a _reason_
to prefer it for servers.
