Bug#921533: nvidia-cuda-dev: cannot install with uuid-dev

[Giuseppe Bilotta]

Package: nvidia-cuda-dev
Version: 10.0.130-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

trying to install nvidia-cuda-dev when uuid-dev is installed fails
because both packages have a '/usr/share/man/man3/uuid.3.gz' file. The
one in nvidia-cuda-dev is a symlink to the cudaDeviceProp man page
(because cudaDeviceProp now has an uuid member field).

(I was tempted to up the severity of the bug due to uuid-dev being in
the dependency chain of several “essential” UI -dev packages, including
xorg-dev, libgtk-3-dev etc, but ultimately decided not to.)

Cheers,

GB
