adding multimedia on debian etch testing
Friends.
I got the debian etch testing 25 cds and converted them into 3 DVDs.
Installed debian etch testing using those DVDs.
and I wished to update all the multimedia stuff.
so added the debian-multimedia.org repository.
My /etc/apt/sources.list looks like this.
-------------------------------------------------
deb http://debian-multimedia.org testing main
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Snapshot i386
Binary-1 (20061009)]/ etch contrib main
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Snapshot i386
Binary-2 (20061009)]/ etch contrib main
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Snapshot i386
Binary-3 (20061009)]/ etch contrib main
---------------------------------------------------
My aim to to add all multimedia things into my system and create a
26th multimedia addon cd and to distribute the 3 DVD + 1 multimedia CD
to my friends
where the internet is still a dream.
I am so happy to see the debian which gives everything.
Now i get problem in adding the multimedia things.
if i give
#apt-get install mplayer
it gives the error as

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

be installed
Depends: libcucul0 (>= 0.99.beta8-1) but 0.99.beta7-1 is to
be installed
Depends: libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.14.7) but 1.14.4-2 is to be installed
Depends: mplayer-skin but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

and stops.
I can not install mplayer.
This happens for all major multimedia applications.
my #apt-get update result is

What is DiffIndex?
It should show only four entries as 3 DVd + one website.
why it is showing so many things?
Please guide me to solve this problem and install all the multimedia hacks.
Thanks.
