It is strange that it fails, did you use sbuild? The reason is that if
the dependencies allow, packages should be taken from unstable even when
built on experimental. That means, if the same package builds on
unstable, the very same packages should get installed as build-depends
in experimental.

I will test, too.

Sorry, I completely forgot about this and now reading it I am at loss:
* how can one reproduce the obsolete conffile?
* has it moved to a different package?

Thanks
