[Bug 1726803] Re: package shim-signed 1.32~16.04.1+0.9+1474479173.6c180c6-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Steve Langasek]

It appears this is normal that the nvidia packages will upgrade to pull
in a newer version as a dependency.  This means we need to special-case
nvidia in /var/lib/dkms/nvidia-* to avoid triggering errors in
unattended upgrades.
