[SOLVED] Daedalus nvidia borkage with nvidia-driver 525.147.05-4~deb12u1

I just did an apt update, apt upgrade and my Daedalus system has gotten it's Nvidia graphics packages messed up - according to aptitude this seems to be because most of the NVidia packages have been updated to 525.147.05-4~deb12u1 but firmware-nvidia-gsp in particular (but nvidia-kernel-dkms and nvidia-settings also look suspicious) is not available at that version for that Devuan version (they seem to be back at  525.125.06-1~deb12u1):

Also compare the outputs of:

• https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/poli … r&x=submit

and look closely at the package versions available for "daedulus"

Who do I contact to request a fixup?

Re: [SOLVED] Daedalus nvidia borkage with nvidia-driver 525.147.05-4~deb12u1

Good to know! I was holding off updating one of my machines. Thanks!

EDIT: just updated and it seems to be working 100% Kernel 6.1.0-16-amd64 and Nvidia version: 525.147.05

Yayy!
