Package: nvidia-graphics-legacy-modules-i386
Version: 1.0.7182+1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid patch
Hi Randall,
The nvidia-glx-legacy package is uninstallable in unstable, and not being
updated in testing, because there are no nvidia-graphics-legacy-modules-i386
packages built for the current version. As this prevents bug #372252 from
being fixed in testing, this will most probably result in nvidia-glx-legacy
being dropped from etch if new binary packages aren't made available soon.
Does the module/driver ABI really change so frequently that each upstream
version needs its own ABI declaration? Oh well, assuming for the moment
that this is the case, attached is a simple patch to update for the latest
kernel version and the latest nvidia ABI. I'm happy to NMU for this if you
don't have time to get to it.
BTW, are there any plans to provide prepackaged modules for the amd64
n-g-d-l packages?
Cheers,
