Try installing first aptitude, than try again to install sparky-aptus using it (same commands as apt-get), it will offer solutions for the broken/dependence packages.

If you feel you found the solution, please edit the first message title, adding [SOLVED] to the beginning of it, so others can benefit from it. thaks!

I removed  libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0. It removed a bunch of other stuff.
Installed sparky-aptus and it works fine. This also reinstalled
libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0 with dmo2 instead of dmo1
