Hi,

The dh_installchangelogs command is generally not used to install things
from the general staging dir into packages directories.  At first
glance, the nvidia-graphics-drivers case looks like a case that is
better solved in the package itself.  E.g.

override_dh_installchangelogs:
        dh_installchangelogs debian/tmp/NVIDIA_Changelog
        rm -f debian/tmp/NVIDIA_Changelog

Or by adding "NVIDIA_Changelog" to debian/not-installed, etc.

Thanks,
~Niels
