I just don't think this bug is important enough to be worth
cherrypicking back to pre-yakkety systems; there's frankly a host of
other bumblebee and packaging related issues that are probably just as
important, if not more so, and I think they fall out of scope of a SRU
(and yes, there's been a ton of packaging changes, see http://metadata
.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/b/bumblebee/unstable_changelog).
For this particular bug, users who do not know what bumblebee is are
unlikely to install it in the first place, and there's a simple
workaround: "sudo apt-get purge bumblebee bumblebee-nvidia" instead of
just "sudo apt-get remove bumblebee bumblebee-nvidia".

If you're interested in pushing this yourself for trusty/xenial, you can
