Thanks for your report!
Unfortunately package from deb-multimedia.org are not official, so you
should ask to deb-multimedia.org maintainers as reported in their FAQ

Befor reporting a bug to deb-multimedia maintainers you should try to
clean the cache: the only thing that came in my mind related to
ordered_dict module is that urllib3 dropped Python2.6 support, and
urllib3.packages.ordered_dict module was removed:

https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/commit/cb2159878f8b47c5b4bc6d159ae2857b85c0a197

but in the traceback there is a pickle.loads() invocation.

Hope this help!

Regards!

P.S. this is not a Debian bug, but I will wait your reply for a few days
before closing it.
