I had to do the following to get xbmc installed (after apt-get failed because of the overwrite problem):
If it's OK to completely remove the nvidia libvdpau package, it'd be nice if the libvdpau package made it clear to apt that it's a valid substitute (e.g. 'provides nvidia-libvdpau' or whatever the syntax is?).
Code:
sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/libvdpau1_0.3-2build1~_i386.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
