Bug#730841: boinc-nvidia-cuda: please Recommend libcuda1-i386 [amd64]

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: boinc-nvidia-cuda
Version: 7.2.33+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I have a small gift for you: libcuda1-i386:i386. That's a real package
that can be recommended from boinc-nvidia-cuda:amd64 and it will care
for the installation of libcuda1:i386 (if foreign architecture i386 is
enabled on amd64). Provides and multiarch foreign don't work together,
so this is the working solution for cross-arch Recommends for now.

I would suggest the following control.in change:

- at Recommends: libcuda1-ia32 [amd64]|nvidia-current [amd64]|libcuda-5.0-1 [amd64], ia32-libs [amd64]|nvidia-current [amd64]|libcuda-5.0-1 [amd64]
+ at Recommends: libcuda1-i386 [amd64]|nvidia-current [amd64], ia32-libs [amd64]|nvidia-current [amd64]|libcuda-5.0-1 [amd64]

libcuda1-ia32 is gone long ago ...
the libcuda-5.0-1 alternative needs to be removed, otherwise the
Recomends is already satisfied by libcuda1:amd64.

I'm not sure what you want to achieve with the ia32-libs Recommends, but
this does not work anyway since libcuda-5.0-1 is already satisfied by
libcuda1:amd64.

PS: NVIDIA has declared CUDA on 32-bit x86 as deprecated, so this may
disappear at some point in the future ...
