 Wow, that's really a bad practice from debian-multimedia.org (Cc:ing
 d-m.org maintainer): if we ever need versionned dependencies on our
 pure Debian packages, then the addition of this repository breaks it
 all.

 Whether or not the version in the dependency is warranted can be
 debated (I don't know why the dependency was added), but in all cases
 the provides should be removed.
