[aur-general] NVIDIA drivers

[Alexander Rødseth]

Hi,

According to the AUR guidelines, it should be okay with several
packages for the same application, as long as they all provide
something different, like applying different patches etc.

"Exception to this strict rule may only be packages having extra
features enabled and/or patches in compare to the official ones." -
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Packaging_Standards#Submitting_packages_to_the_AUR

If the *-total packages provide the same software, without any extra
features enabled and/or patches, perhaps they could be kept instead of
the old packages?
Are there reasons to keep the old nvidia packages, if they provide the
same content, instead of only having the *-total packages?
