The verification of the Stable Release Update for nvidia-modprobe has completed successfully and the package is now being released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

This is because the new libraries have a versioned hard dependency on nvidia-modprobe >= 460.73 and nvidia-settings >= 460.73. This is impacting data scientists and deep learning customers. [Test Case] * Add the Nvidia CUDA repositories below: echo 'deb http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64 / deb http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/machine-learning/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64 / ' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-cuda.list sudo apt-get update * Ensure nvidia and libnvidia files come from the Ubuntu repository: echo 'Package: nvidia-* libnvidia-* xserver-xorg-* Pin: release l=NVIDIA CUDA Pin-Priority: -1' |sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/nvidia-libs.conf sudo apt-get update * Install nvidia-driver-460 from the Ubuntu repository: sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver-460 * Confirm that almost all Nvidia driver packages are set to the same version (460.73.01) except for nvidia-settings and nvidia-modprobe: dpkg --list |grep nvidia |grep ^ii |awk '{print $3"\t" $2}' |sort -n * Attempt to install the CUDA package from Nvidia sudo apt-get install cuda-drivers-460 * The drivers will not install due to a version mismatch as show below: sudo apt-get install cuda-drivers-460 ... The following packages have unmet dependencies: cuda-drivers-460 Depends: nvidia-modprobe (>= 460.73.01) but 460.32.03-0ubuntu20.04.1 is to be installed Depends: nvidia-settings (>= 460.73.01) but 460.39-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [Where problems could occur] * This may potentially cause issues with older versions of the Nvidia driver, but this is low since this is for users of the 460 drivers. [Other Information] Can nvidia-modprobe and nvidia-settings be synchronized to match the other versions provided in this and all future nvidia-drivers-* metapackages? This should resolve the issue forever going forward.
