However, git-core 1.5.3.1-1~bpo40+2 has only been built and uploaded for amd64, hppa, mips and sparc so far, while git-svn is an architecture independent package. I suppose that this is the actual problem you're facing right now. You have to wait for the buildd admin of your architecture to upload the package.
