Bug#502457: RFP: nvidia-cg-toolkit
Note: This request is that nvidia-cg-toolkit gets properly packaged
into the non-free section. NOT main. I thought that was pretty obvious
but I guess I have to say it out loud.
By having a downloader rather then the data it presents problems for
people with personal packages archives in Ubuntu for example. These
machines can not download from the internet which means you can not
use nvidia-cg-toolkit as a dependency in your PPA. This is how I found
out about the license change.
I have made a deb already in my personal package archives (can be
downloaded here: https://launchpad.net/~andrewfenn/+archive ) and have
also attached a diff of the debian directory to this email. Please
note that this deb isn't up to debian standards so please update it if
you feel it isn't good enough.
In this package I have put common files found in both amd64 and i386
versions of the Linux distributable and placed them in a common
folder.
I hope this information helps,
Andrew
