Bug Description
Mesa 8.0+ now supports eg. hw accelerated video decoding via the VDPAU API, and XvMC support, over Gallium on at least Radeon r300+ and r600+. Please enable the support for it. More info and a patch in the linked Debian bug report.

Also, a debdiff attached. vdpauinfo now detects VDPAU on my r600+ (radeon hd 4670) card after installing the resulting libg3dvl-mesa .deb.
However, there is a build related issue at least I had - contrary to the debdiff, I used "-rf" instead of just "-r", ie. set -e; for file in $(NOT_INSTALLED); do rm -rf debian/tmp/$$file; done - because it complained about some XvMC files without -f. Therefore, as discussed in the comment above that line, those disappeared files should be probably accounted for in the packaging somehow. The reason the original line is in debdiff is that I added the -f manually and ran fakeroot debian/rules binary to complete creating the packages.
