Can we force that by a command line option? Else if I have to add this
in documentation for example for diaspora, I have to say, use aptitude
and choose n two times etc.
But this did not work for diaspora anyway.

After adding
https://salsa.debian.org/rojin/diaspora-apt-pin-preferences/-/blob/master/99diaspora
in /etc/apt/preferences.d aptitude and apt can install diaspora.
I started with aptitude because it can already do this for build
dependencies, but having this in apt would be nice as well.
If you'd like to reproduce this issue, you can use my personal repo at
https://wiki.debian.org/Diaspora#Bullseye_Backports.2Fpersonal_repo
which has a package priority of 100 like official backports.
