The libsuitesparse-dev_1:3.4.0-1 package is now in unstable [1].  I think
that the following source packages, at least, will need NMUs:

    elmerfem
    freemat
    illuminator
    lp-solve
    octave3.0
    octave3.2
    openoffice.org
    petsc
    pysparse
    python-scipy
    scilab
    slepc
    trilinos
