Package: samba-dev
Version: 2:4.1.11+dfsg-1~bpo70+1
Severity: normal
On Debian Release 7.7 (current Debian stable) it appears not to be
possible to install the samba-dev package.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
samba-dev : Depends: libtdb-dev (>= 1.2.11) but 1.2.10-2 is to be installed
Depends: samba-libs (= 2:4.1.11+dfsg-1~bpo70+1) but it is
not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
As can be seen above apt-get complains "you have held broken
packages", even though the "--ignore-hold" flag is specified,
and there are no broken packages on the system.

Why is samba-dev depending on a version of libtdb-dev which is
not available in Debian stable?
