should we add a dependency on video_cards_nvidia (provided by app-containers/nvidia-container-toolkit) so user can access nvidia gpu from docker? Reproducible: Always
Or perhaps USE=cuda (not sure what's better here).
(In reply to Sam James from comment #1) > Or perhaps USE=cuda (not sure what's better here). To elaborate: ... because this would mean that rather than all nvidia graphics + docker users having nvidia-container-toolkit pulled in, it would be restricted to those interested in cuda, and other packages have USE=cuda too.
Is this an optional runtime dependency? If so, I think I should use optfeature instead of a use flag. Thoughts? William

BTW, what's optfeature?
after read the doc of optfeature, it seems it just tell user some extra package(s) available?
Yes, optfeature is for displaying packages that need to be installed for optional runtime features. But, let me take look again, I haven't seen the error you pasted into your last comment.
