The 4.30 driver from experimental installs ok against the 5.2 kernel, tried a 
few games, seems to work fine.

I also got a build failure, but did not notice it immediately,
as dpkg did not even fail. I noticed when I tried to boot the
machine: nothing was working, not even the network.

Based on this I created the following patch, with which I was able to
regenerate the package nvidia-kernel-dkms_418.74-1_amd64.deb, and it worked
for me:

Control: severity -1 serious

Since linux 5.2 is now in unstable, let's raise the severity of this bug
report.

Cheers
