Hi François,

#677885, #678040, #678070, #678895 and #678898 already contains trivial
patches, I did check packages on every offered architectures to see if file
differs, I can recheck if necessary. I can also check #677657 to see if
things has changed since bug report and provide a patch if needed.

libgl1-nvidia-glx doesn't depend on libxvmc1 so it should be a problem
anymore (at least if you use nvidia packages from unstable).

Unfortunately I didn't have much time to spend on not so trivial packages
and Debian freeze doesn't really help accepting patches, even if multiarch
is a release goal ...
