Thanks for the pinning hint but I did not include it in my post, so people would still get the updates in case there are some security issues with libvdpau. After all the custom package is only supposed to be a temporary solution and recompiling the package only takes a few minutes.

@Maarten Lankhorst
I really don't see your point. The libvdpau-hack can easily be disabled by changing /etc/vdpau_wrapper.cfg. This can be done by the maintainer of the flashplugin-package once Adobe releases a fix. As soon as the issue is fixed, the patch can also be removed from libvdpau.

In my opinion it is much more important to get this issue fixed NOW, than waiting until Adobe gets their act together and fixes this bug. Adobe did not even acknowledge that they would fix this bug, so basically we might have to wait forever.
