As suggested by Ben Hutchings we dropped the modules for the -rt kernel
as that is not expected to have a stable ABI even though the ABIversion
does not change. That would require a new upload (or at least a binNMU)
of nvidia-graphics-modules after every upgrade of the linux package.
Current users of the prebuilt -rt module packages will need to switch to
nvidia-kernel-dkms (or build their own modules from
nvidia-kernel-source). They may have a obsolete package installed that
is not used any longer, but nvidia-glx will ensure that a current module
is provided.
There are no plans to turn the obsolete metapackage
nvidia-kernel-rt-FLAVOR into a transitional one that depends on
nvidia-kernel-dkms.
(And I'd like to see this in testing s.t. I may upload a new one for the
new kernel in sid which had the ABI bumped)
I just verified that nvidia-kernel-3.2.0-3-amd64=302.17+2+3+3.2.23-1 and
nvidia-kernel-dkms=304.48-1 are co-installable, dkms will move the
"original module" aside and install its own updated one. The same should
hold for the -rt kernel.
