The driver depends on the nvidia-settings package, that we build
separately.

Title:
nvidia-current package does not install nvidia-settings app
Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
THe nvidia-current package does not install the nvidia-settings
binary, but does install the nvidia-settings desktop file:
$ dpkg -L nvidia-current | grep settings
/usr/share/doc/nvidia-current/html/nvidiasettings.html
/usr/share/pixmaps/nvidia-current-settings.png
/usr/share/nvidia-current/ubuntu-nvidia-settings.desktop
/usr/share/man/man1/alt-nvidia-current-settings.1.gz
$ cat /usr/share/nvidia-current/ubuntu-nvidia-settings.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=NVIDIA X Server Settings
Comment=Configure NVIDIA X Server Settings
Exec=/usr/bin/nvidia-settings
Icon=nvidia-current-settings
Categories=System;Settings;
$ ls /usr/bin/nvidia-settings -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jan 23 10:39 /usr/bin/nvidia-settings ->
/etc/alternatives/nvidia_settings
$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/nvidia_settings
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 52 Jan 23 10:39 /etc/alternatives/nvidia_settings ->
/usr/lib/nvidia-settings-updates/bin/nvidia-settings
$ ls -l /usr/lib/nvidia-settings-updates/bin/nvidia-settings
ls: cannot access /usr/lib/nvidia-settings-updates/bin/nvidia-settings: No
such file or directory
However:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/nvidia-settings/bin/nvidia-settings
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1776800 Nov 16 04:50
/usr/lib/nvidia-settings/bin/nvidia-settings
...so it looks like the symlink in /etc/alternatives needs to be updated
perhaps?
