No, it is not this simple
iii) without the R repositories, the multimedia repositories (and
everything else) works fine.

Allegedly not, at least if I follow http://debian-multimedia.org/ where I read


For squeeze (testing) alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mipsel,
powerpc and sparc packages
add in your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main
or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main
or
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org testing main


Unless there is something really broken in my apt, but I cannot understand how.
