[Bug 538072] [NEW] Separate xvmc and vdpau from nvidia-current to other package

 

Public bug reported:

nvidia-current provide binary vdpau library for accelerated video
playback. But vdpau is supported only on GeForce 8800 (and up). So for
older graphic cards vdpau library is not needed (On 6600 GT doesnt
work). It is possible to separate vdpau to other (sub)package? So user
can uninstall vdpau if it doesnt need.

And there are same with xvmc library. This nvidia xvmc library works
only on old GeForce graphic cards (f. e. 6600), so users with new cards
doesnt have installed this library. It is possible to separate xvmc to
other deb package?

** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
