I've done a rebuild tdepim 14.0.4~pre on Stretch and was completely without 
problems. It seems that so far no updates in Stretch did not cause breakage 
tdepim.

Tip for installing necessary dependencies:

  apt-get build-dep tdepim-trinity

Tip for building: in debian/rules you can find DEB_CMAKE_EXTRA_FLAGS == 
options, which are used to build on Debian / Ubuntu.
