>(so yes, I looked everywhere and <=1:14.04+20140707 is just not available anywhere, even on packages.debian.org, so that's why I'm registering a bug)
It is available, but only in trusty-propsed [1], not the regular repositories.-proposed is a repository used to test newer versions of packages to make sure they build and work as expected before they are migrated over to the regular repositories and become available for everyone. This usually takes a short amount of time, but it looks like this package has been stuck in -proposed since July this year. Presumably the latest version of this package has been built against the dependencies available in -proposed but since the underlying changes hasn't been migrated over it causes problems because it requests a newer version than the commonly available one. A similar issue affects the Norwegian Bokmål (bug 1394996) and possibly other language packs.
