That means it is using org-7.x, probably the org that came with whatever
emacs package Debian distributes. If you are installing packages from
Debian repos, that's probably the best that you can expect. If you
(think you) are installing from the orgmode git repo, there is probably
something wrong.
Emacs provides tools to figure out where things are coming from: C-h f
on a function name tells you which file the function came from, e.g.
C-h f org-html-export-as-html RET
,----
| org-html-export-as-html is an interactive Lisp function in
| `ox-html.el'.
| ...
`----
M-x locate-library RET ox-html RET tells you where emacs would load the
ox-html library would be loaded from.
There are more nuances and more tools but these should be enough to start with.
