Package: nvidia-vaapi-driver
Version: 0.0.8-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

This package is really broken and out-dated (last update: 26 Dec 2022), cause I didn't get any response from bug system or personal email requst,
I report this ITA directly now. I just want to co-maintain this package instead of replacing original maintainer.

Reference:
Debian bug #1057194 and #1077308, Ubuntu bug #2042861 (all of them have requested a new upstream update);
https://github.com/elFarto/nvidia-vaapi-driver/releases/tag/v0.0.10 (Upstream fix for nvidia-driver 535 only in the new version).
(Tips: nvidia driver 535 is the version debian stable and debian unstable provides now.)

Debian Release: 12.6
APT prefers stable-updates

What you are doing here is not adopting the package but salvaging it.
So, I am renaming the bug to represent that.
