Package: nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx-source
Version: 96.43.23-3
Severity: important
The debian build rules are not clean for user compiled kernels which
include in the kernel version characters which are not allowed in
debian package version strings.

Attached is a quick and dirty patch which resolves the problem for my
machine; it is a patch to 'debian/prep-modules'
Applies to at least the packages 'nvidia-kernel-legacy-96xx-source'
and 'nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx-source', not tested with others (but
most probably applies also to other nvidia legacy kernel source
packages). Applies at least to package in wheezy (stable). Bug also
reported to 'nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx-source'.
While reporting this bug, the installation of the nvidia-glx-libraries
was probably not clean, but that is not relevant to the problem
reported here.
