Bug#976605: nvidia-cuda-dev 11.1 in 'testing' works with nvidia-driver 455.45 ; 'testing' has driver v 450.x

[Timothy Hanson]

Package: nvidia-cuda-dev
Version: 11.1.1-2
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: sideskate at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

You likely laready know this, but the version of nvidia-cuda-dev in testing
needs nvidia driver > 455.xx ; I've installed 455.45 from experimental, and
verified that cuda is working properly.

If the 450.xx driver from testing is installed, cuda applications fail with
cudaError_t 999 'cudaErrorUnknown' (which is confusing)

Thanks for all you hardwork here.  First time poster, longtime fan etc.
