Don't provide both the full path to the vapi and a --pkg argument (with
--vapidir if necessary).  Use one or the other.

That said, I can't actually reproduce this; I just get a bunch of
errors about all the symbols having already been declared (since valac
tries to load the same vapi twice).  Maybe you're running an older
version of valac, or those aren't really the commands you're using?
