Source: libav
Version: 6:9.11-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

since latest libav* packages upgrade from 6:9.11.2 to 6:9:11.3, playing
x264 videos with intel vaapi enabled doesn't work anymore.

e.g. XBMC fails to render video with the following messages:
ERROR: CLinuxRendererGL::UploadVAAPITexture - failed to create vaapi glx surface

Re-building the package after deleting the patch allows the videos to be
played again ( quilt delete s390x-pic.patch ).

Note that as a workaround, disabling vaapi support (mplayer/XBMC) works as well.
