Build dependency must be created in such way that package builds on
distribution which is intended for (unstable - testing).  I am not aware
of any obligation to provide build dependency for every possible case
which could happen (ie. building on stable, ubuntu, whatever).  And
testing+unstable holds 0.5.2-1 version of gnome-pkg-tools.

If you are backporting unstable packages to stable then you must expect
some effort on your side (ie. playing with build depends, backporting
some additional packages, etc.)
