  Description     : NiceHash cryptocurrency mining client for Linux

nuxhash is a NiceHash cryptocurrency mining client for Linux.
It consists of a headless daemon and an optional wxPython-based GUI.

I am packaging this so I can mine with NiceHash on my Debian machine.
This package will be in contrib because while the package itself is
free, it depends on NVIDIA's proprietary drivers and CUDA, which are in
non-free. It also downloads and executes a proprietary miner called
Excavator. I will maintain this package inside the Python team.

I no longer own an NVIDIA graphics card, so I will not be able to fully
test this package well outside of making sure it builds. The package
was ready for upload, but never got sponsored. It's still available in
Salsa at https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/nuxhash.
