 Hi,
 
 I forgot about the no-X11 case, sorry.
 These packages are very intertwined with their dependencies and
 OS-specific stuff, I imagine there might be more fallout waiting to be
 discovered...
 
 For background, VA-API and VDPAU allow for utilizing some GPUs for
 decoding video.
 
 Currently we have libvdpau/available.mk to help note which things should
 pull in vdpau - perhaps that can be adjusted to be friendlier, e.g. I
 could make it add a vdpau option whenever available.mk is used.
 
 If there's some generic "I don't want to pull in X11 most of the time"
 test, maybe I can use it. I don't know if one exists, though.
