Hi,

while doing the last big round of nvidia driver updates for (old-)stable
I also prepared this legacy-304xx update for jessie, but then forgot to
file a bug and upload it.

It's a new (and final) upstream version from the 304.xx legacy branch,
we already got this into stretch in the last point release.
It it not a simple rebuild of the stretch package since there are too
many inappropriate changes between jessie and stretch.
It comes with a new NEWS entry reporting the upstream End-of-Life status
of this legacy series.
And then there is a collection of cherry-picked changes and bugfixes,
which are already available in sid, stretch, jessie-backports for a long
time without any problematic reports. A notable change is the TLS fix
where we no longer ship the legacy-tls variant (for 2.x kernels) as an
alternative (a change we also made in
nvidia-graphics-drivers{,-legacy-*}/stretch and in
nvidia-graphics-drivers/jessie).

I hope this can still make it into the last jessie point release.


Andreas
