quickly checked this since I was on plummer anyway for CUDA 9.1 ...

Works fine.

No differences to the amd64 symbols -> rename to *.symbols


debian/gbp.conf:

[buildpackage]
overlay = True
export-dir = ../build-area
create-orig = False
pristine-tar = False
compression = gz
tarball-dir = ../tarballs-nvidia-cudnn
component = [ 'ppc64el', ]

lintian tells me this, the first three need to be fixed:

I doubt that this is redistributable in non-free at all.
The only option in that case would be an installer package (that
downloads the stuff and creates .debs on the users system).

But I'd be glad to hear something different from NVIDIA. :-)

I'm missing something corresponding to this paragraph from the CUDA
toolkit license:

 2.3. Operating Systems
 .
 CUDA Licensed Software designed exclusively for use on the
 Linux or FreeBSD operating systems, or other operating systems
 derived from the source code to these operating systems, may
 be copied and redistributed, provided that the object code
 files thereof are not modified in any way (except for
 unzipping of compressed files).

PS: I could easily generate the ppc64el symbols on the porter box.



Bug#887728: RFS: nvidia-cudnn/7.0.5~cuda9.0-1 [ITP / ppc64el help needed]

2018-01-19 Thread Lumin
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-CC: a...@debian.org pkg-nvidia-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org

Dear mentors,

  I am looking for a sponsor for my package "lua-moses"

 * Package name: nvidia-cudnn
   Version : 7.0.5~cuda9.0-1
   Upstream Author : NVIDIA
 * URL : https://developer.nvidia.com/cudnn
 * License : ***PROPRIETARY***
   Section : non-free/libs

  It builds those binary packages:

libcudnn7 - NVIDIA CUDA Deep Neural Network library (cuDNN)
libcudnn-dev - NVIDIA CUDA Deep Neural Network library (cuDNN), Header File

  To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

https://salsa.debian.org/lumin-guest/nvidia-cudnn

##NOTE##

  I didn't upload the package to debomatic-amd64, nor the mentors because the
  source package is too large to me (~660MB). My local amd64 build
with cowbuilder
  was successful.

##ppc64el HELP NEEDED##

  I have no resource to test the ppc64el build, so I need someone to
help me with
  the following steps:

  1. build on ppc64el to see if the rules is working for ppc64el
  2. update *.symbols.ppc64el, stripping the debian revision.

##LICENSE##

  Similar to nvidia-cuda-toolkit package.
  Two nvidia people that I contacted before are BCC'ed.
  To nvidia people: The license is shipped in debian/copyright, see
the git repo:
https://salsa.debian.org/lumin-guest/nvidia-cudnn

  Changes since the last upload:

nvidia-cudnn (7.0.5~cuda9.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Initial release. (Closes: #862524)
