Make sure to use osm2pgsql from backports. This always has
the newest released version.

Be aware that you'll likely need osm2pgsql 1.2.2 at the moment
to import a planet. If your import gets stuck when reading
relations then your osm2pgsql is too old.

osm2pgsql 1.2.2 should be available in backports in a couple of
days.
