...but it can't be installed since 0.9.5.3-6 < 0.9.5.7-15.99, and the
0.9.5.7-15.99 version from dists/slink-updates can't be removed (I asked
debian-admin for a removal and they answered that the only way was to
upload a version with a higher version number (I thought this email was
cc:'d to you; it hasn't?))

The only solution is to re-upload 0.9.5.3-6 as 0.9.5.7-16-0.9.5.3-6, or
use an epoch...
