If you followed the instructions in the mail I replied to, the installed packages are left with a dependency on x264 and not libx264. The real problem is that the few times I tried to use automated update methods ran into problems because x264 was already installed and libx264 couldn't be installed because they conflicted. Nothing seems to be in UPDATING or MOVED so the upgrades break. There needs to be a better way of handling these cases.
