Hi Alex,

that version won't help, nvidia-kernel-dkms is also not compiling on
testing; there hasn't been a new version in months. Not just about testing,
the experimental version is also not compiling with recent kernels.

If you look at https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/nvidia-graphics-drivers
you'll see that nvidia-graphics-drivers is currently marked for autoremoval
on 10 July due to it being outdated.

Also note that the newest Nvidia-packaged drivers dropped support for
GeForce GTX 10 Series, which impacts many users.

Andr=C3=A9
