The problem is that lsb_release -ir returns

Release:        3.1

and /usr/share/postgresql-common/supported-versions is not accepting
this release but is rather expecting testing/unstable instead, which
is what appears in /etc/debian_version.

I think a proper fix would involve modifying
/usr/share/postgresql-common/supported-versions to properly detect
testing/unstable.  An incorrect temporary workaround that will allow
you to get the packages installed properly is to apply this patch:

             echo "Unknown Debian release: $1"
             exit 1

to /usr/share/postgresql-common/supported-versions.  This is a wrong
fix though because the real answer for an actual 3.1 system may be
different.
