I believe this issue is a thing of the past. In any case, if it still
occurs with Ubuntu precise 12.04 or newer, we'd need an updated bug

This problem drives me crazy :-(
Whenever a new kernel gets installed I have to boot up with the old kernel and

DKMS build fails, but package upgrade still successful

I'm going to invalidate the DKMS tasks. This should be less of a worry
in Lucid because DKMS will be more resilient to build failures and
provides an upstart task before GDM gets a chance to go at the system.
Alberto's recommendation about checking for the existence of the kernel

Ideally, this known and safe cause of build failure could be
distinguished from real build failures. Does DKMS check that the headers
are actually available (I think it does not)?
In any case this seems to require some special handling, as nvidia
package control file probably cannot instruct dpkg
So the problem with declaring the package as failed if the DKMS build
failed is that it may actually pass or fail depending on how far along
into the updates you are.
Say you are updating to a new linux-headers with a new ABI at the same
time as installing the NVIDIA package.
Well if the NVIDIA p
Interesting, you're right that in such a case the package upgrade should
not be marked as succeeding. This may be exacerbating the situation
when the package fails to build for other reasons.
