✍️ Description

libcuda1 needs libnvidia-ptxjitcompiler1, libnvidia-gpucomp and libnvidia-pkcs11-openssl3 at exactly its own version. Only the four top-level packages were requested at the host's version, so apt resolved the rest to the newest release in the CUDA repo and the install failed. A version stanza now covers the whole libnvidia-* family. It has to come before the origin pin: apt takes the first stanza that matches a version, so behind the origin pin it is never read.

msg_warn leaves the step, its error message and the failed apt record in place, so a later failure would be reported under hardware acceleration with the NVIDIA error. The success line keeps its old text, since telemetry reports it as the step.

Try this branch

The engine and the scripts resolve independently, so a production script can
be run against the engine from this PR by setting one variable:

COMMUNITY_SCRIPTS_CORE_URL=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/core/fix/nvidia-userspace-version-pin \
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/debian.sh)"

Swap ct/debian.sh for whatever exercises the change.

Run a script from a fork as well

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/core/fix/nvidia-userspace-version-pin/tools/run.sh |
  bash -s -- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/YOU/DevScripts/your-branch ct/debian.sh \
             https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/core/fix/nvidia-userspace-version-pin

Note that run.sh is reached through a pipe, so the script it starts inherits
an exhausted stdin. Whiptail is fine — it opens /dev/tty — but a plain read
would see EOF. The single-variable form above does not have that problem.

Useful flags while testing

dev_mode=net logs every engine fetch with status and duration, which is the
quickest way to confirm the branch is really being used. dev_mode=keep stops a
failed build from deleting the container along with the evidence.
