I don't have pinned packages, and my mirror seems up-to-date. Looking through a troublesome dependency of task-kde-desktop, I get kde-standard->akregator->libkf5grantleetheme5->libkf5xmlgui5->qtbase-abi-5-10-0
libkf5xmlgui5 from my "apt-cache show" is the same version as the latest at https://packages.debian.org/sid/libkf5xmlgui5 (5.47.0-1) According to https://packages.debian.org/sid/qtbase-abi-5-10-0 , qtbase-abi-5-10-0 is a virtual package provided by libqt5core5a. The version of libqt5core5a from my "apt-cache show" is the same as on https://packages.debian.org/sid/libqt5core5a (5.11.1+dfsg-6, and is in fact already installed on my system) I am confused. libkf5xmlgui5 has some funky architecture-dependent dependencies on qtbase-abi-5-10-0 vs qtbase-abi-5-11-0; perhaps it has something to do with that?
