I see what happened now: openms was removed from testing on 2020-12-29

I filed the package removal request for seqan-dev on 2021-01-22 . I did a
build-rdeps search against testing, not unstable, so that is why I missed
openms.

Openms re-entered testing on 2021-02-05

The seqan-dev package was removed from unstable on 2021-02-08 and from
testing on 2021-02-10
