Package: libgnutls28-dev
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Dear Maintainer,

   I tried to install the packages to compile Samba 4.2, this usually 
   means installing libgnutls-dev, but this seems to have been replaced
   by libgnutls28-dev, YOU CANNOT INSTALL THIS!

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgnutls28-dev : 
Depends: libgnutls-deb0-28 (= 3.3.8-6~bpo70+1) but 3.3.8-6 is to be installed
Depends: libgnutlsxx28 (= 3.3.8-6~bpo70+1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: nettle-dev (>= 2.5) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libtasn1-6-dev (>= 3.9) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libp11-kit-dev (>= 0.20.7) but it is not going to be installed
libldap2-dev : 
Depends: libldap-2.4-2 (= 2.4.31+really2.4.40-4~bpo70+1) but 2.4.40-4 is to be installed

tried to add a few of the above, but:

I gave up at this point!!!
