Description: A set of GStreamer 1.x plugins for using libva (VA API) to handle
video.

I'm using this in-house, so offering the package up to the wider Fedora
community.

I believe that the legal issues are covered by the same reasoning as libva
itself (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=518546) - this package does
not itself do any decoding, it simply passes video data through to libva, which
then passes it to a driver that infringes patents. I'm going to block FE-LEGAL,
though, so that my reasoning can be reviewed.
