Does this work for bullseye as well?
src:nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla-470 frequently gets rebuilt for
bullseye-pu and I prefer to have minimal differences between the
packages in sid, bookworm and bullseye.
But given the fact that the 470 driver series is scheduled for EoL in
July 2024, it won't be released with trixie (but will stay in sid for as
long as people still need it for legacy hardware (and it's possible to
keep the module compilable for new kernels) like the 340 and 390
series), this bug will probably be "wontfix".
