Can't install owncloud 2.5.3 on debian 9 stretch due to unmet dependencies

[frazy81]

I currently can't install owncloud-client on debian 9 stretch due to unmet dependencies. My output of "apt install owncloud-client" goes like:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
owncloud-client : Depends: libowncloudsync0 (= 2.5.3.11470+oc-342) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: ocqt5101-libqt5concurrent5 but it is not installable

Expected behaviour

owncloud 2.5.3 client installes without unmet dependencies

Actual behaviour

"apt install owncloud-client", fails with dependency errors:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

@jnweiger for help…

Ouch. We are preparing a 2.5.4 release. Publishing is disabled, but SUSE OBS has decided to push some updates through, already. Now http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/desktop is in a broken state. Half 2.5.3 and half 2.5.4 sorry for this. I have fallen into that trap before and did not remember when preparing the release yesterday. Sorry.

For 2.5.3, please try https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/isv:ownCloud:desktop:client-2.5.3/owncloud-client instead. That repository stays at 2.5.3

[jnweiger]

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/desktop should have 2.5.4 within the next one or two hours. Or 4 hours. sigh.
