Be sure what the content of your /etc/apt/preferences file is, because this might be the blocking issue.

Do not ignore the 'p' in front of reference any more

The file /etc/apt/preferences does exist on your screenshots, please look into it and paste the content here.

I would suggest to first get the repository list fixed than remove the offending package with force, than install community ssu, which pulls in missing dependencies.

1. Extract and copy the attached repository list to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ folder
Open HildonApplicationManager and make sure the repositories are enabled
Refresh the lists, then close HAM
2. Open the X-Terminal application, become root.
First check, if, by chance, anything is on hold (post here)

Code:

sudo gainroot
dpkg --get-selections | grep hold

then remove the offending package

Code:

dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq --force-depends hildon-control-panel

3. Now start FasterApplicationManager, re-import the repository list from HAM by clicking 'Manage repositories', then tap for the menu on the title bar, click 're-import HAM repo settings'. After it refreshed the lists go and try to install CSSU meta package again, may be you have to install the CSSU enabler package as well.

Good luck!

Do not forget to post errors here before proceeding!
