Title:
  nvidia-331-updates should be the dependency of nvidia-current

Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-304” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  nvidia-331-updates should be the dependence of nvidia-current.

  Nvidia 304 is a legacy driver (as 173.14, 96.43 and 71.86), and Nvidia
  331 is the latest long lived branch version of the driver, what fits
  best for Trusty.

  See: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html

  PS: I think "current" means the latest 331 driver, currently nvidia-
  current is a transitional package for nvidia-304, and sometimes it is
  older than nvidia-304-updates, it is a bit confusing.
