Package: nvidia-kernel-source
Version: 1.0.8756-2
Severity: important

Since the latest nvidia update (version 1.0.8756), I cannot get
module-assistant to build nvidia-kernel-1.0.8756 from
nvidia-kernel-source. I obtain the following message:

Extracting the package tarball, /usr/src/nvidia-kernel-source.tar.gz,
please wait...
Target package file
/usr/src/nvidia-kernel-2.6.14-2-686_1.0.8178-3+2.6.14-7_i386.deb already
exists, not rebuilding!
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/share/perl5/Text/WrapI18N.pm line 33.
(however, you could use the -f switch to ignore it)
Version 1.0.8178-3+2.6.14-7 of nvidia-kernel-2.6.14-2-686 already
installed, skipping.

However, the version of nvidia-kernel-source installed is 1.0.8756-2, so
I don't understand why it won't build the right version of the kernel
module.

Now I might have attributed the bug to the wrong package, but since the
problem started since nvidia-kernel-source went to version 1.0.8756, I deemed it
to be the culprit. I already had the same problem with version
1.0.8756-1.

I hope you can solve the problem, or at least indicate how I can get
module-assistant to build the right version. Thank you in advance.

Christophe Grandsire.
