Package: nvidia-kernel-dkms Version: 525.147.05-5 Severity: serious This module did not build on my machine. I tracked down the cause to the absence of the relevant linux-headers package, which is required to build the module. This package should depend on linux-headers-generic to ensure that the appropriate linux-headers-<arch> package is installed.
If at all, this dependency is in the realm of dkms and src:linux and we recently dropped the header dependency from dkms for the ongoing restructuring of src:linux. And the previous dependency in dkms frequently pulled in the wrong headers...
The required behavior (headers matching the running kernel (ideally metapackages for both)) is not expressable with package relationships.
