There's no 5.3.4 in testing. Whatever you do it wrong.

(Yes, in unstable there was a version skew here and still is for i386 (because it failed due to the
Linux/Java problem.)
Which might cause this. the build for _all in unstable is  separete step as for amd64 and takes longer.).

But that is _unstable_, not _testing_.

What does apt-cache policy on said packages say?

Otherwise: 5.2.7-1 should be able to be installed inside testing. Not built anymore,
but that's not that important here.
