Yes, I guess I agree w.r.t libhwloc  -- but note also that the nvidia
drivers depend on nvidia-prime, which depends on (lightdm or gdm or kdm)
which is what causes the desktops to get pulled in.   So I'm thinking
that the drivrs should not depend on nvidia-prime.  There are plausible
scenarios, e.g. in docker images, to not want an entire desktop
installed, just to do some graphics.
