Is this repository lagging behind the APT repository?

Upgrading packages on my Ubuntu 24.04 system today, 595.58.03 seems to have become available in the APT repository.

Sadly, I still seem to need the workaround in #1015 (comment), which involves building some bits from this repository, but AFAICT, the latest tag here is 595.45.04.

Does this repository need to be synced with the internal one that I assume you to have, or was 595.58.03 added to the APT repository erroneously and prematurely?

Either way, please advise...

The open gpu kernel modules repository is mainly for the source code to be publically available. The packaging for your distribution is done either by your distribution maintainer or for the nvidia apt repository a bit later. They are not instantly available :)

Well, in this particular case, it just seems to be the other way around, as there is a newer version is available in the official APT repository than the latest version tag in this repository.

Which is a bit of a bummer, since I need to build nv-kernel.o_binary and nv-modeset-kernel.o_binary with a few more flags than Nvidia currently does, as described in the comment I linked to.

595.58.03 was released today, both in the APT repository, and here on open-gpu-kernel-modules. There sometimes can be a few hour difference in the precise posting time between one and the other. Sorry.

Ah, yes, I see it now — thank you, and have a great day :-)
