The other option is to point to Bionic to get postgresql 10. There may be lots of dependencies so it may (or may not) be as straight forward as you think (I run into various kernel panics in the past for forcing dependencies that have not been tested for older kernels).
You should enter the Ubuntun repor and download this version.
