Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-cg-toolkit

The package installs and is marked as successful - but it does not
actually install and fails during the download of the toolkit from
Nvidia with a 403 Forbidden error.  This has happened on several
machines on different networks and even though all affected machines can
download all other packages fine.  When I look on the Nvidia website
(http://developer.nvidia.com/object/cg_toolkit.html), the 2.1 version is
no longer available - but the 2.2 is.  Thus the error.

This failure is not preventing the package from becoming marked as
installed however, and is leading to erroneous installs of other
packages that assume it has been installed, afterwards.  One such is
Panda3D.

** Affects: nvidia-cg-toolkit (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
