  - Use NVIDIA's conftest.sh script to determine settings during module
    build instead of our manually maintained conftest.h header.
  - Hand over as much as possible to Kbuild.
  - Support building a 64-bit kernel module with 32-bit userspace.

  - Stop special-casing the nvidia-alternative substitution.
  - Add B-D: dpkg-dev (>= 1.17.0) for dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field.
  - Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.8. No changes needed.
* Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-340xx 340.96-3:
* Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers 352.79-5:
  - Drop incomplete Perfkit support.
  - Support building a 64-bit kernel module with 32-bit userspace.

* Synchronize packaging with nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-304xx 304.131-3:
  - Add disable-mtrr.patch to disable MTRR in the kernel module if
    building on 4.3 or greater, where the deprecated APIs the kernel module
    uses are no longer exported, causing a failure when the module is
    loaded at runtime. (Closes: #809324)

* nvidia-legacy-304xx-alternative: Restrict Depends: glx-alternative-nvidia
  to (<< 0.7). Uploading a new upstream legacy release to stable will
  invalidate package relationships in unstable, thus permitting some
  (partial) upgrade paths that will fail.
* Update lintian overrides.

    option.

    be used to disallow use of GLX protocol. See "Appendix B. X Config
    Options" in the README for more details.

6. By Andreas Beckmann on 2013-11-25

Merge libxvmcnvidia1 back into libgl1-nvidia-legacy-304xx-glx to simplify
the upgrade path from wheezy. This avoids automatic installation of the
304xx legacy driver in parallel to the already installed current driver.
(Closes: #729838)
