Bug#950156: stretch-pu: package nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-340xx/340.108-3~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-340xx to the last (as
in final) upstream release 340.108. NVIDIA has declared the 340 legacy
driver series as End-of-Life and won't issue any further updates.
A NEWS entry is added to inform the users about this fact.
We did a similar update for nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-304xx in
stretch when the 304 legacy driver was EoL-ed.

The package contains all packaging updates and fixes that have
accumulated since the last update in stretch release and that I consider
suitable for stretch. This helps us keeping the packaging in sync between
the 4 driver series and over the releases from oldstable to experimental.

The identical package is available in sid, bullseye and buster-backports
and has been requested for buster-pu (#948544).

The attached diff is generated from the git repository and (as usual)
excludes the blobs.
The diff is a bit larger than the one for buster-pu since it also
contains the changes between stretch and buster - mostly documentation
updates, lintian overrides and the switch from subversion to git while
moving from alioth to salsa and management of the tarballs in a
git-lfs repository.

Thanks for considering.


Andreas
