in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See

to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not

testing will help us make a better decision.

Title:
  Totem can't play videos on Gallium graphics without mesa-va-drivers

Bug description:
  Impact
  -------
  Totem can't play videos if gstreamer1.0-vaapi is installed on Gallium graphics in Xenial because mesa-va-drivers is not installed as a dependency of va-driver-all.

  Here is the dependency chain in Xenial:
  gstreamer1.0-vaapi Depends on libva1
  libva1 Recommends va-driver-all
  va-driver-all Depends on i965-va-driver vdpau-va-driver (no mesa-va-drivers)

  This is fixed in version 1.7.0-2 in Debian and Yakkety.
  libva (1.7.0-2) unstable; urgency=medium

    * debian/control:
      - Add mesa-va-drivers as alternative to Depends of va-driver-all.
      - Bump Standards-Versions.

  Test case
  ----------
  - Purge va-driver-all and mesa-va-drivers if already installed
  - Install va-driver-all from xenial-proposed
  - Make sure that mesa-va-drivers is pulled in
  - Play videos in Totem with gstreamer1.0-vaapi installed and make sure that videos play nicely.

  Here is the terminal output of Totem (with gstreamer1.0-vaapi installed and no mesa-va-drivers):
  :~$ totem
  Stream with high frequencies VQ coding
  libva info: VA-API version 0.39.0
  libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
  libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/radeonsi_drv_video.so
  libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
  libva info: VA-API version 0.39.0
  libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
  libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/gallium_drv_video.so
  libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1
  libva info: VA-API version 0.39.0
  libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0

  When mesa-va-drivers is installed, Totem plays videos just fine.

  
  Regression potential
  ---------------------
  Since there are no code changes at all, I cannot think of any regressions.
