This now happened, and kodi is the very last rdep of jasper (both in
testing and unstable)

reading around looks like 17 breaks some stuff indeed.

this doesn't depend on me. The release team wants to get rid of it, and
confirmed that they will remove it from testing as soon as there are no
rdep, then I want to remove it from unstable too (but I'm not rushing
for that).
I suppose that if you want to keep kodi in testing—together with
jasper—you'll need to play with this bug report to avoid the
autoremoval (as every email delays the autorm date).
