Weird, I admit.

This issue has been fixed in new 2.1.2-beta1 release, that will be
uploaded soon.

Could you assure me that you're not using deb-multimedia.org sources
in your sources.list file? That often leads to broken dependencies;
if you have set those, please try to purge them from your sources.list,
update the cache and re-try the installation. If it fails anyhow, then
I guess the problem is somewhere else, but weird... since I never faced
an issue in installing official stuff.

Cheers.
