Bug#631174: libvdpau1: Multi-Arch support and other drivers

Hello,
just as a heads-up: Mesa recently gained support for video acceleration [0] and
one supported method is VDPAU (the others being XvMC and VA). As Mesa is already
multi-arch ready the most natural path to install the VDPAU drivers would be
/usr/lib/<MULTI-ARCH-TRIPLET>/vdpau but, AFAICT, libvdpau (in its current form)
wouldn't find any driver there (without an environment variable?), right? So
multi-arch support would be much appreciated.

Kind regards,
Kai Wasserbäch

P.S.: I'm not a member of the Mesa team, just somebody who, from time to time,
likes to test an upcoming version of Mesa. ;)
