libcufile-dev and nvidia-cuda-dev are declared Multi-Arch: same, but each of them fails to coinstall with itself. The file /usr/share/doc/libcufile-dev/README.gz is shared by libcufile-dev version 1.9.1.3~12.4.1-2 as present in trixie and version 1.9.1.3~12.4.1-8+b2 as present in forky|unstable with varying content. The file /usr/include/cudaEGL.h is shared by nvidia-cuda-dev version 12.4.127~12.4.1-2 as present in trixie and version 12.4.127~12.4.1-8+b2 as present in forky|unstable with varying content. Please ensure that shared files have bit-identical content across architectures, move architecture-dependent files to architecture-dependent paths or remove the Multi-Arch: same field. Kind regards Helmut Grohne
[Helmut Grohne] Is there a patch proposal to fix this issue that keep the package out of testing?
Hi Petter, While it is nice for -dev packages to be coinstallable, in most cases it is not necessary (if you work with minimal build environments). In these cases, it probably is not worth the effort to restructure the package for coinstallability. If a need arises, this can be done later. Helmut
Here is a patch proposal to fix this bug. https://salsa.debian.org/nvidia-team/nvidia-cuda-toolkit/-/merge_requests/2 Best -Dominique
