OK, this worked for this error. This might be a question of undeclared 
dependencies installed or not (I got my first deb from Todai, too).

For the doubly-defined symbols, I have now checked a fix into CVS. Totem 
builds and runs then. Can't say whether it works: I have yet to find a 
movie that it wants to play. Also, for a package that uses python 
heavily while building, it is a little shy about dependencies on 
pythonXX, pygtk2 etc. In fact, the list of dependencies one gets using a 
tool like depfinder is only vaguely related to the list of dependencies 
in the totem.info file. I am not volunteering to fix this, I would 
rather scrap the whole thing.
