The git tree does not even compile for almost a year because of missing 
link in generated Makefiles.

git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/vaapi/libva (tonight at 11 )

sh autogen.sh

make

Making all in decode
make[3]: entrant dans le répertoire « 
/home/valette/local/src/libva/test/decode »
   CXX    mpeg2vldemo.o
   CXXLD  mpeg2vldemo
/usr/bin/ld: mpeg2vldemo.o: undefined reference to symbol 'vaCreateSurfaces'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'vaCreateSurfaces' is defined in DSO 
/home/valette/local/src/libva/va/.libs/libva.so.1 so try adding it to 
the linker command line
/home/valette/local/src/libva/va/.libs/libva.so.1: could not read 
symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [mpeg2vldemo] Erreur 1

So I would say that anyway people do not really care about what is said 
here. I reported this at least tree times...
