I don't either, but let's see.

This does not tell me anything.

Ditto, although this gives me two hints:
- pykde4 will migrate tomorrow
- education-desktop-kde on all the architectures depends on some
  packages (e.g. kmail) that now are available just on few of them

This means two possible solutions:
a) fix src:debian-edu, via MU or NMU
b) ask release-team to temporarily hint out src:debian-edu from testing

I'll see tomorrow what can be done ...

This is because src:kdepim was removed from unstable, and this tracks
its status to remove it from testing.  I guess.

I'd kindly ask you to hold that until:
a) KDEPIM 17.08.3 migrates to testing
b) I sort out the coinstallation issues with kdepim4

In the meanwhile, what could be done is
a) answer users' questions/issues on the users ML
b) handle bugs for the new versions
c) possibly triage old bugs

Sort-of ready in git, but "needs" (thanks Laurent Montel for the
unneeded requirement bumps) newer Frameworks than what is in unstable.
