"Valid candidate" means the package itself (i.e. pygame) meets the criteria for migration (it's up-to-date on all architectures for which binaries exist in unstable, doesn't have RC bugs filed against it, has been in unstable for long enough, ...). However, due to the lack of kfreebsd-* binaries, migrating the new pygame would cause the current kfreebsd-* binaries for monsterz in testing to become uninstallable. Both of these statements are correct; there is no contradiction. As I said earlier, either a solution needs to be found that allows pygame to build on kfreebsd-* again, or its reverse dependencies need to be fixed to not depend on it on kfreebsd-* (including their not existing on those architectures, if need be).
