Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-settings

For rotation testing of the NVIDIA proprietary drivers, the test case is
as follows:

Rotation
Case ID: xpr-004
1. Test rotation using xrandr --output $OUTPUT --rotate <direction>
Expected failure on -nvidia: use the nvidia GUI config tool for this instead 

However, the nvidia GUI config tool has no option to rotate the display.
