#1130541 nvidia-open-gpu-kernel-modules: autopkgtest needs update for new version of linux-signed-amd64

#1130541#5

Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of linux-signed-amd64 the autopkgtest of
nvidia-open-gpu-kernel-modules 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    6.19.6+1
nvidia-open-gpu-kernel-modules from testing    550.163.01-4
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.
