[Bug 1369398] Re: package nvidia-331 331.89-0ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 8
Workaround until this gets fixed:
# stop nvidia-persistenced
$ sudo service nvidia-persistenced stop
# completely uninstall failed package and dependencies
$ apt-get remove nvidia-updates-331 nvidia-updates-331-dev nvidia-updates-331-uvm
# reinstall all three packages
$ apt-get install nvidia-updates-331 nvidia-updates-331-dev nvidia-updates-331-uvm
# restart persistenced
$ sudo service nvidia-persistenced start
