Dear Maintainer,

Is there any word on when nvidia-kernel-dkms will be updated?
I’m on Debian Testig, currently with kernel 7.1.13; a while back, I had an update to 7.2.6, but it wouldn't complete due to this error.
A kernel update to version 7.2.8 was released today, and once again, I 
am unable to install it. This is my APT output (polish language):
