Bug Description
I'm requesting a FeatureFreeze exception for nvidia-cuda-toolkit 5.5, pycuda and starpu-contrib. Upgrading to nvidia-cuda-toolkit will require pycuda and starpu-contrib to be rebuilt with libcuda 5.5 anyway, so I'd like to use this opportunity to merge them as well.
The version currently in Ubuntu, nvidia-cuda-toolkit 5.0, was released in October 2012 and receives no updates from upstream. I believe we will be better off supporting the newer version in the upcoming Trusty LTS.
The packages, with my proposed modifications, all built successfully in my PPA:
