Seems like a package from experimental is taken despite not being
needed, the version in unstable would suffice.
This shows that the builds there are not properly done.
I suggest simply building on unstable, since we don't need anything from
experimental. Only the upload goes to experimental. All the builds on
the build servers will correctly use only packages from unstable.

Also the KDE packages not once did succeed the CI builds. That is
somehow either broken or simply not working. I don't invest time there.

No need for all that, forget CI ...
I just built all the cinnamon packages with an adjusted build-tier
script (original is here
https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/pkg-kde-dev-scripts/-/blob/master/build-tiers)
I only adjusted to be able to build cinnamon packages and defined tiers
for cinnamon. So all is automatically built in sbuild.

Ahh indeed. That is a pain and discussed now and then. The solution I
found is described here:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/02/msg00349.html
I also asked on #debian-devel now, will see if there is more than that.
Best
