Dear maintainer(s),
Like with every new minor linux version the autopkgtest of
nvidia-graphics-drivers fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run
with the binary packages of linux-signed-amd64 from unstable. It passes
when run with only packages from testing. In tabular form:
pass fail
linux-signed-amd64 from testing 7.2.6+1
nvidia-graphics-drivers from testing 550.163.01-5.1
all others from testing from testing
I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.
Currently this regression is blocking the migration of
linux-signed-amd64 to testing [1]. Of course, linux-signed-amd64
shouldn't just break your autopkgtest (or even worse, your package), but
it seems to me that the change in linux-signed-amd64 was intended and
your package needs to update to the new situation.
If this is a real problem in your package (and not only in your
autopkgtest), the right binary package(s) from linux-signed-amd64 should
really add a versioned Breaks on the unfixed version of (one of your)
package(s). Note: the Breaks is nice even if the issue is only in the
autopkgtest as it helps the migration software to figure out the right
versions to combine in the tests.
