Hi doko,

Thank you for the comments.

The original source is very huge (~1GiB+), and it will grow
up to ~2GiB after adding the ppc64el "source" contents.
However my current ISP is accounting the traffic flow, so you know.
:-(

Yes, seems that my python scripts for autofixing work well,
so there remains no reason to keep them.

Yes, I'll keep these in mind.

Just the opposite, almost all of them are installed.
And the very long list of --list-missing is a historical
problem for the CUDA package ......
Due to path change (e.g. from /usr/opt/ to /usr/ ), --list-missing
considers them not installed.

in d/rules, there are some $RM operations to decrease
the length of --list-missing, however, it doesn't work all the time.

1. introduce a "--list-missing-by-checksum" to debhelper ?
   this is very slow but may be used by other packages.
2. fix paths in debian/tmp before dh_install.
   this will only work in the CUDA package.

By the way, the missing CUDA support for ppc64el blocks 7.5
(missing it is a mistake. ppc64el support is available 
since CUDA version 7.0).

See BUG #808883
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=808883

So I plan to
1. prepare CUDA-7.0.28+ds1-1, adding missing ppc64el "source".
2. migrate some changes from this BUG into the +ds1 upload.
