Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
  postgresql-9.1                  9.1.5-0ubuntu12.04

Ubuntu 11.10:
  postgresql-9.1                  9.1.5-0ubuntu11.10

Ubuntu 11.04:
  postgresql-8.4                  8.4.13-0ubuntu11.04

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
  postgresql-8.4                  8.4.13-0ubuntu10.04

Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
  postgresql-8.3                  8.3.20-0ubuntu8.04

This update uses a new upstream release, which includes additional bug
fixes. Due to upstream security policies, this update removes the ability
of xslt_process() to fetch documents or stylesheets from external URLs.
Please see http://www.postgresql.org/about/news/1407/ for more information.
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
