Absolutely.

Ansgar,

Nothing you have shown so far demonstrates anything wrong with the src:elogind
dependencies. In fact you have suggested several times that this is an issue
with apt or whatever dependency resolver the experimental buildd uses.

Can you provide information from the resolver to show how it is coming to its
incorrect decision?

Thanks
