Package: nvidia-cuda-toolkit
Version: 9.1.85-4+b1
Severity: wishlist

Dear cuda maintainers,

Nvidia just released several binary patches for CUDA toolkit...

   https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads?target_os=Linux&target_arch=x86_64&target_distro=Fedora&target_version=25&target_type=runfilelocal

Patch1 is gemm performance update.

Patch2 is a bug fix to the PTX assembler (ptxas)

Patch3 is a gemm fix.


Well ... Maybe there is no need to include them? I think we should just
wait for the next major/minor release. Let's hope for a better compiler
support from upstream.
