Finally I am wondering whether the choice of installing PostgreSQL through the PostgreSQL apt repository would be safe enough or it would be preferable to install the LTS version of Ubuntu.
the LTS version of Ubuntu is preferable for server installs where you want long term stability.
the versions of postgres in the ubuntu standard apt repositories are perfectly adequate for production use, up to date, and well managed. there's a bunch of ubuntu/debian specific command wrappers like pg_lsclusters, pg_createcluster, and so forth that come along with that install.
