It is essentially a race around locking which is why at the same time it can:

We need to merge the newest version from Debian to fix in Yakkety - yet we have quite a few dependencies that we wanted to put into the next merge so this needs some evaluation.

For Xenial we need to discuss if we can take the stable branch or if we have to backport juts the fix (complex and a lot of dependencies)
