While this bug continues to go unfixed, we must be losing potential

Why can't linux-headers-generic be added to the NVidia dependencies or

I have to agree with Hernan Alvarez (in #12). Installing the nVidia

A kernel update was suggested by the "software updater" today (Nov 5)

I wanted to also confirm that comment #8 is incorrect and this bug can

This is a serious problem. A fresh install of Ubuntu 12.10 followed by

Since 12.10, the kernel header packages for Ubuntu are not installed by

a dependency on "linux-headers-generic" because Ubuntu/dkms screws this
up.

comment 7-8 is incorrect. You can test this by removing ALL packages
that satisfy the linux-headers virtual dependency, and watch and nvidia-
current* doesn't get removed. Then try re-installing nvidia-current,
watch as no headers get installed.
