A couple of options I can think of, mostly to do with changing your use of 
libvpx:

1.  package the newer libvpx in a way that is parallel-installable that 
doesn't replace the system copy

2.  corrolary to 1, link package libvpx as a static lib, and link it that 
way.

3.  phonon goes use gstreamer backend by default (which needs gstreamer-
plugins-good).  You could try building and using the vlc backend instead 
(which would allow for removing phonon-backend-gstreamer). 

1 or 2 are are the better options to use if possible
