My fault or something with the new kernel?

[towo]

It's not the kernel, it's the today update of gcc-6 (2.6.0-7). If you downgrade all gcc related packages to the testing version (2.6.0-6) all is working fine,
Btw, it's not only nvidia, it seems all 3rd party modules like vbox, vmware, nvidia and so on, will not build.

By now there is a new kernel as well, so no need to downgrade all these packages

Seems to be quite a few changes coming lately.

Good to see, but also a time for caution when dist-upgrading.

Quick question Towo.

If the critter in your signature not a bug, is it a feature? :-)

[devil]

Well, we are moving up to freeze. So everryone tries to get changes in in a rush, which is not always good for quality.

[Taliesin]

Right, that explains the flurry of activity then.

Thanks Devil.
