I'm aware of the warning given by Update Manager, I received it when I

This is particularly worrysome because nvidia-common still pulls in
nvidia-96-modaliases and nvidia-71-modaliases. It might be a
requirement for the transition away from those to nv in update-manager,
so I don't think we should drop them now.
