I have no clue why testing.pl concludes that postbooks depends on
libqt4-webkit.  However, that is a red herring. Sadly, it is not the
most reliable/accurate service.

The issue is that migrating postbooks would make postbooks-updater
uninstallable on amd64.  I have tried to add an easy hint to make
Britney migrate postbooks together with postbooks-updater (without
having checked if it will work).
  If it does not migrate tonight, we will revisit it.  Please note that
the migration mails are set only once a day (next in 22 hours from now),
so please use dak or rmadision if you want to know before then.

Thanks,
~Niels
