Package: nvidia-driver
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
X-Debbugs-Cc: forrest.cah...@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer,
Attempting to install the nvidia-driver package on my Debian sid system gives
these dependency errors:
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Unsatisfied dependencies:
nvidia-driver : PreDepends: nvidia-installer-cleanup but it is not installable
PreDepends: nvidia-legacy-check (>= 495) but it is not going
to be installed
Depends: nvidia-driver-libs (= 535.183.06-1) but it is not
going to be installed
Depends: nvidia-driver-bin (= 535.183.06-1) but it is not
going to be installed
Depends: xserver-xorg-video-nvidia (= 535.183.06-1) but it is
not going to be installed
Depends: nvidia-vdpau-driver (= 535.183.06-1) but it is not
going to be installed
Depends: nvidia-alternative (= 535.183.06-1)
Depends: nvidia-kernel-dkms (= 535.183.06-1) but it is not
going to be installed or
nvidia-kernel-535.183.06 or
nvidia-open-kernel-535.183.06 but it is not
installable
Depends: nvidia-support but it is not installable
Recommends: nvidia-settings (>= 535) but it is not installable
Recommends: libnvidia-cfg1 (= 535.183.06-1) but it is not
going to be installed
Recommends: nvidia-persistenced (>= 535) but it is not
installable

I have the following sources.list:

I think this error might be because nvidia-support is a virtual package with no
installation candidate
root@axismundi:~# apt show nvidia-support
Package: nvidia-support
State: not a real package (virtual)
Notice: Can't select candidate version from package nvidia-support as it has no
candidate
Notice: Can't select versions from package 'nvidia-support' as it is purely
virtual
Notice: No packages found

You are missing 'contrib' in your apt source configuration (for all
other entries as well)
