It seems that [] is actually obscure. For instance:
disset:~> apt-get install -s openssh-client openssh-server openssh-sftp-server
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

Conf openssh-client (1:10.2p1-3 Debian:testing, Debian:unstable [amd64])
but I don't understand why there are breaks for openssh-sftp-server
and openssh-server.
Using "-o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=true" does not show additional
