Yes, every NVIDIA driver upgrade requires it. The Pop Shop performs full-upgrade actions, and apt users get notified.
One more thing: let's remember to merge https://github.com/pop-os/gnome-shell-extension-system76-power/pull/47 with it too so users aren't prompted to switch to Nvidia when adding monitors while in hybrid mode.
still amazed and love that you do your official pop-os dev out in the open on Github, respect!
I had to revert back to 440.100, the new driver was making vulkan shaders take too long to process.
@Redbatman89 are you talking about when you launch a proton game in steam? It does take a bit (about 7 minutes when I tried it with fallout 4), but that only happens the first time you launch it. It probably needs to reconfigure them for the new driver, but it won't keep doing it every time.
That may be fixed by the new 455.28 driver. We will be packaging it soon.

It wasn't just Proton but actual Linux native games too. Rise of Tomb Raider was taking almost 20 mins and Serious Sam Fusion was taking long too. Thing is that I allow my Steam to process vulkan shaders in the background once I launch steam everytime.
Oh one thing I forgot to mention: I had to use
sudo apt full-upgrade
to install. I'm not sure whether that's a problem or not.
