Ok, packaging for libvdpau has moved. Here are the new locations.

Vcs-Git: git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-nvidia/libvdpau.git
Vcs-Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-nvidia/libvdpau.git

A new libvdpau package was uploaded already, so the PTS should be updated 
soon.

I deleted libvdpau trunk and branches directories as well and left the tags 
directory. Tags can be set in git for all the tags in svn however. Is there 
some reason the tags should stay in svn?
