Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

I wanted to install the linux-headers-amd64 package from buster-backports.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I ran the following command to install the linux-headers-amd64 package from buster-backports.

sudo apt -t buster-backports install linux-headers-amd64

   * What was the outcome of this action?

The package was not able to install. Here is the output of the command.

$ sudo apt install -t buster-backports linux-image-amd64 linux-headers-amd64

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 linux-headers-amd64 : Depends: linux-headers-5.10.0-0.bpo.8-amd64 (= 5.10.46-4~bpo10+1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I expected that the linux-headers-amd64 package would install from buster-backports without any issues.

   * Suspected cause.

I suspect that the linux-headers-amd64 package from buster-backports is not installable because. The linux-headers-amd64_5.10.46-4~bpo10+1 depends on linux-headers-5.10.0-0.bpo.8-amd64_5.10.46-2~bpo10+1 but only linux-headers-5.10.0-0.bpo.8-amd64_5.10.46-4~bpo10+1 is available and thus a mismatch emerge and the installation fails.
