The libva packages I host are those we use internally. They no longer 
diverge with the upstream repository, aside from some G45 bits. Since you 
use an NVIDIA driver, the upstream version will work equally well, 
provided you use at least version 1.0.3. e.g. use 1.0.7 and you will be 
OK. Likewise for vdpau-video, please use the latest 0.7.3.pre4.

Regards,
Gwenole.
