This happens because libxapian30 from jessie-backports is not compatible
with libstdc++6 from unstable (and should not have been uploaded to
jessie-backports in the first place, or under a different package name).
See #791312 for more information.

Leandro, upgrade libxapian30 to the stretch version, and you should be
fine.

Cheers,
