ubuntu-drivers-common 1:0.9.7.6 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.9.7.6) mantic; urgency=medium

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Add broadcom-sta-dkms to allowlist. (LP: #2013236)
    In Lunar it was identified that both bcmwl and broadcom-sta-dkms are
    identical and maintained in the archive twice. They were merged,
    taking the Debian name as the new default one. However, allowlist was
    forgotten to be updated in ubuntu-drivers to actually offer default
    install of broadcom-sta-dkms.

Binary packages built by this source

dh-modaliases: debhelper extension for scanning kernel module aliases

 dh_modaliases is useful for packages that ship third-party kernel modules,
 either in binary form, or as sources (with e. g. DKMS). It extracts the
 modules' modaliases from either the compile .ko files themselves (for packages
 which ship them in compiled form, using modinfo), or from a package file
 debian/packagename.modaliases.
 .
 This enables software which is looking for missing driver packages (such as
 Jockey or the operating system installer) to identify which package(s) will
 provide a driver for a piece of hardware, identified by its modalias.

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.
