If you try to install nvidia-kernel-source it depends on nvidia-glx

No, it doesn't.  It only recommends nvidia-glx.

That is true, and yet I was unable to upgrade, until I made a fake package called nvidia-kernel-190.53 which allowed me to upgrade nvidia-glx

Unfortunately I no longer have the information on what exactly happened. Maybe it was some interaction with the versioned recommends?
