Hello release team,

Could you temporarily kick nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-173xx out of
testing so that nvidia-graphics-drivers can migrate into testing?  The
version of both packages currently in testing cannot be installed with
the current version of the MESA libraries in testing, which is less than
useful.  Most users will have new enough video cards that they'll want
to use nvidia-graphics-drivers, so getting that one to migrate is the
top priority.

We're working on nvidia-graphics-drivers-legacy-173xx, but it's still
being tested and won't be ready to go for a little while longer.

Thanks!
