Bug#893638: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37: dependency issue with libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 (1.14.0-1) from unstable

[Gabriel Cavallo]

Package: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37
Version: 2.18.6-1
X-Debbugs-CC: slomo at debian.org

Howdy maintainers,

On debian unstable/sid amd64, libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 has been updated to (1.14.0-1)
yet libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 (2.18.6-1) still depends on versions < 1.13.
This broke my entire gnome dependency chain.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 gnome : Depends: gnome-core (= 1:3.22+9) but it is not going to be installed        
         Depends: cheese (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed                        
         Depends: evolution (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed  
         Depends: evolution-plugins (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed  
         Depends: gnome-calendar (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed    
         Depends: gnome-documents (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed     
         Depends: gnome-getting-started-docs (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed    
         Depends: gnome-maps (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed       
         Depends: gnome-todo (>= 3.22) but it is not going to be installed
         Depends: rhythmbox-plugins but it is not going to be installed

I don't know much about apt pinning but I was able to install everything with:

Package: gstreamer1.0-* libgstreamer* gir1.2-gst-plugins-base-1.0 gir1.2-clutter-gst-3.0 gir1.2-gstreamer-1.0
Pin: version 1.12*
Pin-Priority: 1001

Is there a better way to get testing packages if there's a conflict in unstable?

I apologize if this is a normal thing but I wanted to report it just in case...
