* debian/nvidia-$flavour.{dirs|postinst}.in, rules:
  - Install the blacklist file in /lib/nvidia-$flavour instead
    of /usr/lib/nvidia-$flavour so that the file is available
    early in the boot process when /usr is on a different
    partition (LP: #538071).
  - Ignore errors when trying to update the initramfs
    with -k $CURRENT_KERNEL which is known to fail when
    using chroots (LP: #556653).

* debian/nvidia-$flavour.{postinst|prerm}.in:
  - Call gmenucache trigger so that the icon of nvidia-settings
    shows up in the menu (LP: #522969).

31. By Alberto Milone on 2010-02-04

* debian/rules:

30. By Alberto Milone on 2010-02-03

* debian/rules:
  - Use the real name of the kernel module in the modalias
    file instead of the alias.

29. By Alberto Milone on 2010-02-03

* debian/nvidia-173.postinst.in:
  - Update the initramfs for the current kernel and for the
    newest one so that the blacklist file is included in
    the initramfs and nouveau can be blacklisted early.

28. By Alberto Milone on 2010-01-21

* debian/rules:
  - Blacklist nouveau and the other nvidia proprietary
    drivers in the modprobe.conf file.

27. By Alberto Milone on 2010-01-19

* debian/compat:
  - Bump compatibility to 5.
* debian/nvidia-173.install.in:
  - Remove any reference to vdpau.
* debian/nvidia-173.postinst.in:
  - Install alternative with --force so that files that
    already exist (from unofficial PPAs or from the Nvidia
    installer, etc.) are overwritten thus avoiding to
    install a broken alternative.
* debian/rules:
  - Use global replacement when generating files from
    templates.

26. By Alberto Milone on 2010-01-17

* debian/nvidia-173.postinst.in:
  - Remove gl_libraries slave link as the file in ld.so.conf.d is
    enough.
