Same here, please fix the cuda_keyring package. It seems to have been updated yesterday but the checksums now fail, causing all of our workflows that rely on it to fail.
As a suggestion to nVidia it may be beneficial to include a test when releasing a new version that the released package works as intended.
Edit: temporary fixed by pinning the installation to an explicit version link

Same here. Every time NVIDIAās CDN goes out of sync and breaks apt-get update. Feels like their infra team is either asleep or just doesnāt care. For a company selling āaccelerated computingā, their repo sync speed is a joke.
We have just started using the NVidia apt in our CI/CD pipelines (literally an hour ago!) and weāre now running into this issue. Iāve search this forum a bit and noticed this issue is not an outlier, it happens every now and then.
Could you tell me how often (in your experience) does this happen? Otherwise I need to take counter-measures right away, e.g. by mirroring the developer.download.nvidia.com apt remote internally (we do anyway) but only manually sync it.
We rely on working apt mirrors, otherwise this will disrupt our workflows.
