My 2 cents on this is, that once packages is installed from Debian

Debian Multimedia there are rarely any problems.
Now I got curious because that sound so general. What makes it very
hard? In my experience installing and removing packages has always been
easy in Debian.
The versioning scheme of Deb Multimedia packages is meant to take
priority over the Debian proper packages, but this can create problems
under certain circumstances.
Kind regards,

I haven't been using Debian as long as many on this list. Are failures
with Debian-Multimedia that overtly common or are they rather
circumstantial?
It's not failures so much as conflicts. Certain Debian packages will not
upgrade because the requisite libraries have been replaced by
Debian-multimedia ones.
It's a shame because there are some very nice tools in Debian-multimedia
that I'd love to be able to use but not at the expense of core Debian
packages.
