This already fails in plain jessie:

Correct.

jessie2proposed won't help here.
That test starts with a installation from plain jessie, which already fails.
Thereafter jessie-proposed-updates would get added to the sources.list 
and a dist-upgrade would be performed. So dependencies would be resolved
from pu as well.

But jessie-pu does:

(initial installation from jessie + jessie-proposed-updates)
