Public bug reported: While upgrading my system, the following error occurred during the installation of the NVIDIA kernel modules:
"package linux-modules-nvidia-570-6.14.0-1007-oracle 6.14.0-1007.7 failed to install/upgrade: installed linux-modules- nvidia-570-6.14.0-1007-oracle package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1" This appears to be related to the post-installation script of the NVIDIA kernel module package, possibly due to a mismatch between the kernel version and the NVIDIA module or a DKMS-related issue. I am running the Oracle flavor of the Ubuntu kernel (linux-image-6.14.0-1007-oracle). Please advise on how to resolve or further debug this issue.
