@Steve: I just tried this on current wily-proposed with
http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-
migration/update_excuses.html#obconf :

---- /etc/apt/preferences.d/01autopkgtest ----
Package: obconf
Pin: release a=wily-proposed
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: release a=wily
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: release a=wily-proposed
Pin-Priority: 100
------------------------------------------------------------

# apt-get install -s obconf

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 obconf : Depends: libobrender32 (>= 3.6.0) but it is not going to be installed
          Depends: libobt2 (>= 3.6.0) but 3.5.2-8 is to be installed
          Recommends: openbox but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

It seems it's not considering its dependencies from -proposed, but tries
to install everything else from wily? Only if I bump the priority in the
third clause from 100 to 900 it works again (but then of course installs
all deps from -proposed).
