Thanks Brett for the info.

If I understand it well, then TurnKey Linux 11.3 is actually based
on Ubuntu 10.04... plus the selected neccessary packages for
the chosen purpose.

This is what I was thinking about.  So, I have to learn how to
update...

... and this is very valuable info for me. And it also fits with

So far, I did use the SQLite for Django locally, but only
the way that is almost completely managed by Django.
The Django TurnKey Linux uses MySQL. 
I am aware of Postgres as probably one of the most
matured SQL engines for free.
