Hey, that's pretty neat.  I love apt-get (lazy?), getting a newer version
of postgreSQL that is compiled against the stable libs looks pretty good.
I'll try it out on one of my test servers - I think it might be safer
eventually to do that on my production server rather than run Debian
testing.  I'm rather nervous about that because apt-get testing once left
my laptop without php for a few days, that would be a disaster for a
production website!

Thanks Gordon.
