Bug#891577: stretch-pu: package nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-304xx/304.137-5~deb9u1



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: stretch
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu

Hi,

I'd like to update nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-304xx in stretch to
the (literally) last upstream version. It does not have any CVEs
associated with it (unlike nvidia-graphics-drivers and -legacy-340xx),
but it is now EoL-ed upstream (there won't be any further updates
coming from NVIDIA) and I'd like to have that stated by the package.
Also I'd like to get the packaging bugfixes (tls, alternatives, ...)
and improvements that are now coming with 340xx and 384.111 for the
304xx driver, too, to have the three driver series in sync.

The 304xx driver will disappear from testing not later than Xorg bumps
its ABI again ... and thereafter will be only usable on (old-)stable.

Unfortunately I missed to upload the already prepared package to
stretch-backports, so that only happened today. But the only fixes that
were not yet in backports (-4 and -5) are already tested in backports of
the other driver series.

This is a rebuild of the sid package with no further changes needed.
debdiff of the debian/ directory attached, the changelog still needs a
s/UNRELEASED/stretch/ :-)

Thanks for considering.


Andreas
