PostgreSQL in testing



What's up with that package? The files in /var/lib/apt/lists/ say:
Filename: dists/potato/main/binary-i386/misc/postgresql_6.5.3-23.deb

I do not have stable listed in my apt-sources file btw.

Looking into /var/lib/dpkg/available I do not find postgresql at all and
dselect says:
*** Opt misc     postgresql   7.0.3-4     7.0.3-4 Object-relational SQL[...]

So the first question is, why do these sources differ in the information the
give me?

But more important I wonder why postgresl 6.5.3 is still in testing and not
7.0.*. After all 7.1 has been released some weeks ago. 

Looking into the bug tracking system I found that there is one bug against
postgresql tagged serious. Is this the reason? But the bug is 345 days old!
