Hi, I'd like to update the non-free nvidia-graphics-drivers in stretch from 390.116-1 to 390.132-1. There are a few upstream fixes but no known CVE fixes. The majority of the changes are packaging related ... because the packaging is mainly generated (since we build 4 source packages from it in sid nowadays) and I'd like to keep it in sync to be able to propagate fixes through it without running into a merge nightmare at some point. Most changes were triggered by adding support for the separately packaged Tesla drivers - a huge textual diff (e.g. renaming of variables and substvars from "legacy" to the more generic "variant") without causing differences in the generated binaries. All packaging changes are backports from sid and should be documented in the changelog. (Some documentation changes may not be documented.) Some of these changes were already included in previous point releases when we updated nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-340xx for its EoL state. With these changes I hope to cover most changes to be backported through the bullseye release cycle and further updates will only include new upstream releases (with CVE fixes?) without significant packaging updates. The proposed package is very similar to src:nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-390xx in sid/bullseye. As always for nvidia-graphics-drivers, the attached patch is a git diff of debian/ excluding the blobs (*.run). In case it would help your review, I could also provide (like in #956913): * a binary debdiff of 390.116-1 in stretch against 390.116-1 rebuilt with the proposed packaging updates * a split source debdiff of debian/control for the actual changes without reordering and the reordering part Andreas
