It looks like you have Raspbian wheezy (Debian 7.x). NUT 2.7.2 is included in Raspbian jessie (Debian 8.x).

I'm not sure if the Raspbian maintainers recommend doing "apt-get dist-upgrade", or if they would suggest that you start from a fresh install image, but the dist-upgrade would probably take quite a while.
