$ grep-excuses lyx
lyx (- to 1.3.6-1)
Maintainer: Debian LyX Maintainers
68 days old (needed 10 days)
lyx-qt/ia64 unsatisfiable Depends: lyx-common (= 1.3.6-1.0.1)
lyx-xforms/ia64 unsatisfiable Depends: lyx-common (= 1.3.6-1.0.1)
lyx-qt/m68k unsatisfiable Depends: libaiksaurus-1.2-0 (>= 1.2.1+dev-0.12)
lyx-xforms/m68k unsatisfiable Depends: libaiksaurus-1.2-0 (>= 1.2.1+dev-0.12)
lyx (source, alpha, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc) is buggy! (1 > 0)

This question is better directed to the lyx maintainers.

Yes, so again you'll need to ask the k3b maintainers about the status of the

Since the libboost in unstable shouldn't conflict with the libboost in
testing, it should be possible to install the unstable versions. The
package isn't going to get updated in testing until the build failures are
resolved, though.
