I can confirm this bug. I see that package build-essential is currently unchanged between etch and lenny, so the need for build-depending on bzip2 is independent of whether one wants to support an etch backport.
Incidentally, I have now successfully completed an etch backport of nvidia-graphics-drivers 169.09-1. Besides build-depending on bzip2 I had to: * rename the kernel source tarball back to nvidia-kernel-source.tar.bz2, otherwise the etch version of module-assistant won't find it; * relax the version dependency of nvidia-glx on xserver-xorg-core: nVidia claim to support all Xorg from 6.7 onwards, so there is no obvious reason to require 2:1.4. For etch I changed that to 2:1.1.1. Remember to do this in debian/control.in, else it won't stick. The latter change should be OK (harmless) even for lenny/sid. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
