Bug#863708: unblock: nvidia-settings/375.66-1



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package nvidia-settings

I just uploaded a new upstream release of nvidia-settings to unstable.

Usually NVIDIA only bumps the version of nvidia-settings etc. for new
upstream releases of long-lived driver branches, but this time there are
some actual code changes. Since we are going to have
nvidia-graphics-drivers 375.66-1 in stretch to fix the recent CVE
series, we should not deviate from upstream here and keep the version in
sync.

There are some more upstream changes included that were not documented
in the upstream changelog (only available in the driver).
Most notable a newer version of the nvml.h header (libnvidia-ml1 is
shipped by the driver, but the header is not), this is *not* part of the
libxnvctrl0 API.

I also dropped the pie.patch, since the toolchain has improved w.r.t.
PIE defaults, s.t. this is no longer needed.

nvidia-settings (375.66-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release 375.66.
    - Updated the display configuration page in the nvidia-settings
      control panel to accurately reflect HDMI 3D refresh rates.
  * Remove PIE workarounds, this now works out-of-the-box.
