Title:
  On adding modules kernel version is not checked

Status in “dkms” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 dev with dkms 2.2.0.3-1.1ubuntu2. If a module
  is added but it already exists with the same name and version but
  another kernel version dkms doesn't add the module. Here is an example
  output:

  root@ubuntu:~# dkms status
  nvidia-current-updates, 304.64, 3.7.0-7-generic, x86_64: installed
  virtualbox, 4.1.22, 3.7.0-7-generic, x86_64: installed
  virtualbox, 4.1.22, 3.8.0-0-generic, x86_64: installed
  root@ubuntu:~# dkms add -k 3.8.0-0-generic -m nvidia-current-updates -v 304.64
  Error! DKMS tree already contains: nvidia-current-updates-304.64
  You cannot add the same module/version combo more than once.
