Reverse-Depends
===============
* libnvidia-decode-455 (for libnvidia-decode-460)
* libnvidia-encode-455 (for libnvidia-encode-460)
* nvidia-headless-455 [amd64] (for nvidia-headless-460)
* nvidia-kernel-common-455 [amd64]
Packages without architectures listed are reverse-dependencies in:
amd64, i386
in all rmadison releases the above -455 binary packages have versions
460.91.03-*, meaning they got transitioned / taken over by
nvidia-graphics-drivers-460.
in turn the equivalent -460 packages, have versions 470.* meaning they
all got taken over by nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 (still supported).
This is true in all updates, but also jammy release pocket.
This means it is safe to drop them from noble.
In jammy chroot:
(jammy-amd64)root@xnox-Inspiron-7400:~# apt install libnvidia-decode-455
libnvidia-encode-455 nvidia-headless-455 nvidia-kernel-common-455

The following additional packages will be installed:

libnvidia-cfg1-470 libnvidia-compute-470 libnvidia-decode-460
libnvidia-decode-470
libnvidia-encode-460 libnvidia-encode-470 libpciaccess0 libtsan2 libx11-6
libx11-data
libxau6 libxcb1 libxdmcp6 libxext6 nvidia-compute-utils-470 nvidia-dkms-470
nvidia-headless-460 nvidia-headless-470 nvidia-headless-no-dkms-470
nvidia-kernel-common-460 nvidia-kernel-common-470 nvidia-kernel-source-470
Please let me know if above inspection is sufficient, or if you want me
to upload nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 that explicitly produces the 455
transitionals, to avoid double source/binary package jump chain?
