What Steffen means is: Please do never ever mix up V1 and V2 packages.  Old 
packages are binary incompatible with the version due to a new version of 
squashfs.

Cleanup your sources list to use only one version!

Btw: You'll find some of the "usual packages" already inside the 
base-package. IceWeasel and rdesktop are build in.

Please also check our updates regularly. We have released some new packages 
after "consus" was born.

Regards, Jörn
