It is still possible to use "update-alternatives --config vdr" to
select which version you want to use, the packages just were merged 
into one because since vdr 1.2.6-10 one binary can provide all input 
variants, so there was no need to ship 4 different binaries.

It was changed in vdr 1.2.6-10 to reduce build-time and overall
package size. But as i said, you should still be able to use
update-alternatives to switch between the 4 version. (We still ship
the scripts vdr-kbd, vdfr-daemon, vdr-lirc and vdr-rcu which call vdr
with the appropriate options.)
