Go for Debian:

Well, we need to state that this is not a unique feature.

Depends. I had lots of issues with upgrade process in the past -- but
yeah, it is much better than most distros.

Right. apt is better than yum (in terms of speed).
Choose Debian SID or testing, which will provide the latest fixes.
One thing that I don't like about Debian is their update policy.
If upstream is releasing a security update, I'd like to be able to find
new packages as upstream announces updated sets. Yes, I'm talking about
PostgreSQL here.
This is exactly what Debian does for a while now(at least for PostgreSQL)..
Ie.: Debian Etch aka has 8.1.18 and Debian Lenny has 8.3.8...
"Debian Etch aka oldstable" and Debian Lenny (the current release)...
