It says that moving pd-hid to testing prevents pd-hid from installing on testing 
in kfreebsd-amd64 [and maybe more architectures, only the first found is listed].

Since it IS installed on sid, is there something missing from testing, but 
present in sid, that pd-hid needs before it can be installed? something that is 
not listed as a dependency, but should be?
