I think I can live with the Mapserver version, but I want the raster and topology stuff in PostGIS 2.0.x. Do I have to look in the unstable version, compile from source, or what?

Yes that's right, in the Debian world "unstable" means
latest/cutting/bleeding edge versions. I'm not sure why you saw the
versions you did. Are you using Precise 12.04?

Not sure how you got the list you got though, last time I looked this
week stable for precise has no postgis version (because ubuntu itself
has 1.5)... Ah looks like those were very recent additions.

try apt-get update and see if the new version show up in your available
packages.

Thanks,
