ubuntu-drivers-common 1:0.9.6.2~0.22.04.2 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.9.6.2~0.22.04.2) jammy; urgency=medium

  [ Alberto Milone ]
  * debian/rules:
    - Limit the tests to the selected architectures (amd64, arm64).
      This prevents armhf builds from failing.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py:
    - Make sure all -open drivers have a lower priority, regardless
      of whether the --server parameter is passed in or not.
    - Update regex and unify package name parsing in the following
      functions by using the new NvidiaPkgNameInfo class:
      nvidia_desktop_pre_installation_hook,
      _get_headless_no_dkms_metapackage,
      nvidia_desktop_pre_installation_hook,
      get_linux_modules_metapackage,
      This prevents ubuntu-drivers from crashing when dealing with
      the -open NVIDIA drivers (LP: #1993019).
  * tests/test_ubuntu_drivers.py:
    - Add tests so we make sure to keep preferring non-open NVIDIA
      modules over the -open ones, at least until the open modules catch up
      feature wise and performance wise.

  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py:
    - Fix local variable 'version' being referenced before assignment
      when catching ValueError (LP: #1993019).

  [ Jeff Lane ]
  * detect-plugins/sl-modem.py:
    - Add some error trapping when aplay is not installed (on servers)
      (LP: #1935070).

ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.9.6.2~0.22.04.1) jammy; urgency=medium

  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py:
    - Make sure -open drivers have a lower priority (LP: #1988836).

nvidia-common: transitional package for ubuntu-drivers-common

 This is a transitional package for ubuntu-drivers-common. You can remove it
 after upgrading.

ubuntu-drivers-common: Detect and install additional Ubuntu driver packages

 This package aggregates and abstracts Ubuntu specific logic and knowledge
 about third-party driver packages. It provides:
 .
  - a Python API for detecting driver packages for a particular piece of
    hardware or the whole system.
 .
  - an "ubuntu-drivers" command line tool to list or install driver packages
    (mostly for integration in installers).
 .
  - some NVidia specific support code to find the most appropriate driver
    version, as well as setting up the alternatives symlinks that the
    proprietary NVidia and FGLRX packages use.
