Should I hang on until tomorrow evening in case of any late-breaking issues?
As a user facing this issue, I'd rather have the release as soon as possible. It's already been a couple days. But that's just a user perspective! We also need to put some thought into an announcement text. Here's a draft starting point: ======= This update addresses problems in four non-free packages to support nVidia graphics cards. The Linux kernel update included in Debian 12.5 marked two functions as GPL-only, making them inaccessible to non-free kernel modules. As a result, the nVidia kernel modules cannot be built via DKMS at installation time for the updated kernel. This issue could not be resolved in time for the release of Debian 12.5. The following packages have been updated to correct the problem, as well as fixing detection of Tesla 470 compatibility: Package Fixed version ======= ============== nvidia-graphics-drivers nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla-470 nvidia-settings If you use the affected packages, we recommend you upgrade to these versions. ======= Feedback?
