What mess did this repo make? I have been using deb-multimedia for

Just be aware that if you strike any bugs and any dmo packages are
involved, it will be closed without any further ado. The deb-multimedia
repository is toxic to a healthy wheezy system. Take it from me,
I spent ages cleaning up my system when I installed a usual Debian
package and encountered deb-multimedia's versioning fiasco.
To top it all the maintainer of deb-multimedia seems to have no interest
with working with the pkg-multimedia team. :(
================================================================================
I had also a lot of dependemcies problems, mainly coming from incompatible
deb-multimedia and debian libraries, and it took, not ages, but
about 1 week to get rid of them and revert to pure official debian.
