For information, the hashcat-nvidia which has the issue is just a leaf meta-package with popcon 30, which is just a convenience package for installing both hashcat and nvidia-opencl-icd which provides acceleration (hashcat can work without it). The nvidia-smi dependency is merely for getting the number of GPUs for inclusion in the tab-completion help. I don't think anybody still with an i386 system is using this meta-package, so making it uninstallable on i386 shouldn't hurt anybody (and we can easily fix that during the freeze). Samuel
