Sorry if I don't understand something, but today I've unexpectedly
discovered that the driver  You reassigned to, that is
nvidia-vaapi-driver, isn't installed on my system. When I've tried to
install it I encountered the conflict:

Unpacking nvidia-vaapi-driver:amd64 (0.0.8-1) ...
dpkg: error processing archive
/var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-vaapi-driver_0.0.8-1_amd64.deb
(--unpack):
 trying to overwrite
'/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so', which is also in
package vdpau-va-driver:amd64 0.7.4-7

After removing the vdpau-va-driver and installing nvidia-vaapi-driver
the problem was gone. So although now I personally do not have this
problem, the problem as such remains. The file being the subject of
the conflict is the only binary code file in both packages. So I see
the one of the two ways to solve the problem:

1. Either reassign this bug to vdpau-va-driver
2. Or remove vdpau-va-driver from the repository and change
accordingly all being affected packages dependency to point to
nvidia-vaapi-driver.
