Package: nvidia-legacy-173xx-kernel-source
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

it looks like kernel 4.8 and old nvidia sources 173xx do not work together.
As I am using an old nvidia card (GF5700 Ultra), I need 173xx kernel module. But sadly it 
cannot be build. I do not know, if you can do anything with it, but it would be nice, if youcould take an eye on it. 

I have to tell, this problem occurs since a year, but maybe you did not know about it since today.

Thank you very much for reading this.

Best regards

Hans
