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.
