Dear maintainer, I am trying to install codecrypt from a pinned sid repo

You are mixing the stable and unstable releases.  Do not do this.  It
will break things.  See https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian.

After including other dependency packages as well, apt has run into a unresolvable dependency requirement. libstdc++6 insists on libkolabxml1
1.1.0-3 while the newest version available in sid is 1.0.2-2

The problem is that codecrypt and other packages on sid use a newer
libstdc++6 version. Packages on jessie use an older libstdc++6 version.
It's warning you that if you upgrade libstdc++6, you will break every
c++ program you have installed.

AFAICT this dependency conflict is a blocker even if the user is running
unstable.

The dependencies worked fine for me when I installed it on a fully sid
system.

If you want it to work on jessie, it needs to be recompiled for jessie.
The build-depends don't look bad so you shouldn't run into problems
making a backport.

Ah OK. Thanks for the explanation.
