I asked the release team to BinNMU qgis for bug #339254. After
discussion with Steve Langasek I decided that qgis needs to split
libqgis0 out into a separate package to conform to policy. I've done
this and sent the package to my sponsor some days ago. It will have to
go through the NEW queue, so it will be some time before it's in testing
again. I don't think you'll have a problem installing qgis from unstable
using apt pinning right now though.
