Conflict Between R and multimedia repositories

No, it is not this simple
iii) without the R repositories, the multimedia repositories (and
everything else) works fine.
Allegedly not, at least if I follow http://debian-multimedia.org/ where I read


For squeeze (testing) alpha, amd64, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mipsel,
powerpc and sparc packages
add in your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main
or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main
or
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main or
deb ftp://ftp.debian-multimedia.org testing main


Unless there is something really broken in my apt, but I cannot understand how.

But, for what it is worth.  I inserted

deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main

at the end of /etc/apt/sources.list just as you put it, and it does
work for me, except I did not download their security key

Then I added this line to sources.list:

I think this means that the two things are not inherently incompatible
and that there is something funky in the way you are changing the
files so as to break the grammar.
