That is already fixed in #9856 as part of the move from CUDA 12.8 to CUDA 12.9:

https://github.com/cms-sw/cmsdist/blob/IB/CMSSW_15_1_X/master/scram-tools.file/tools/cuda/cuda.xml

Not sure why you don't have it in this other branch.
Hopefully no other changes were missed.

@fwyzard , this is for cudart branch where we have cuda and cuda-runtime packages. The failure is while building cuda-runtime package itself. So I think we need this fix

[fwyzard]

Ok, sure.

@smuzaffar this change was merged just a bit late for 11h IB (which failed).

yes that change was to sync the changes from master branch to cudart branch ( which our automatic forward port job failed to do due to cuda spec differences between master and cudart branch).
