The option -s unstable should ask for Packages file form unstable
(I have the same effect on my box and will hopefully be quickly able
to fix this).

This was easy:

So the problem here is actually not in cdd-dev but you are providing
an ambiguous source.list.unstable that in fact references testing.
If this is intentionally done (I would perfectly see the rationale
behind it to match the target distribution as testing) it should at
least be documented like this alternative patch:

I'm waiting for your reasoning about making the meta packages
architecture any.

Kind regards
