Thank you for the review,

- I've fixed the origin in the patch 0002-fix-makefile.patch
- I've fixed the missing copyrights from vendored golang libraries, good catch.

- I wonder if I should combine the file you mention? It sounds like it would lose some details about authors if I do that. Waiting for a second opinion.
- The reason behind the lack of a libnvidia-container1-dev package is because NVIDIA does not do it in their own packaging, and we want to be as close as possible to them to avoid user confusion. Lintian complains about that,  but says that it can be overriden for small packages. These lines were in d/libnvidia-container1.lintian-overrides to explain:

```
# https://lintian.debian.org/tags/link-to-shared-library-in-wrong-package
#  if this is a small package which includes the runtime and the development libraries, this is not a bug. 
# In the latter case, please override this warning.
```

Title:
  [needs-packaging] libnvidia-container

Status in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  URL: https://github.com/NVIDIA/libnvidia-container
  License: Apache-2.0
  Notes: This repository provides a library and a simple CLI utility to automatically configure GNU/Linux containers leveraging NVIDIA hardware.
  The implementation relies on kernel primitives and is designed to be agnostic of the container runtime.

  I wish to package libnvidia-container for Ubuntu.
