Bug Description

Please add virtual package libcuda-6.0-1 to debian/templates/control.in and debian/templates/nvidia-graphics-drivers.shlibs.in for the 331 series drivers in preparation for CUDA 6.0. This should be updated in Trusty as well to support nvidia-cuda-toolkit backports. The 304 drivers series remain at CUDA 5.0 level.

debian/templates/control.in should contain:
Provides: libcuda-5.0-1, libcuda-5.5-1, libcuda-6.0-1
Breaks: libcuda-5.0-1, libcuda-5.5-1, libcuda-6.0-1
Replaces: libcuda-5.0-1, libcuda-5.5-1, libcuda-6.0-1

debian/templates/nvidia-graphics-drivers.shlibs.in should contain:
libcuda 1 libcuda-6.0-1

Note: only drivers >= 331.62 should provide libcuda-6.0-1.
