This is what I get:

~$ dpkg -s postgis
Package: postgis
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: misc
Installed-Size: 639
Maintainer: Debian GIS Project <pkg-grass-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org>
Architecture: amd64
Version: 2.0.3-2~precise4
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14), libgdal1h (>= 1.9.0), libgeos-c1 (>= 3.3.8),
liblwgeom-2.0.3 (>= 2.0.0), libpq5
Suggests: postgresql-9.1-postgis-2.0
Description: Geographic objects support for PostgreSQL
 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".
 .
 This package contains the PostGIS userland binaries, common files.

I am carefully going through installing PostgreSQL 9.3 and then pg_upgrade
to see if I can migrate the data over...
