** Description changed:

  I'm using Ubuntu 11.10 dev with nvidia-current 280.13-0ubuntu1.
  Currently there are 2 bad depency-entries and the first one can cause
  the building process to fail:
  
   |Depends: linux-headers-generic
    Depends: <linux-headers>
      linux-headers-3.0.0-7
      linux-headers-3.0.0-7-generic
      linux-headers-3.0.0-7-server
      linux-headers-3.0.0-7-virtual
  
  Dependend on the kernel the version in the dependencies can differ.
  
  Without linux-headers-generic nvidia-current can't be build because
  linux-headers-3.0.0-7 can be installed without  linux-
  headers-3.0.0-7-generic and  linux-headers-generic. For reproducing:
  Install linux-headers-3.0.0-7 and remove linux-headers-3.0.0-7-generic
  and linux-headers-generic if installed. Now try to rebuild nvidia-
  current with dkms. The dependencies are succesfully resolved because
  linux-headers-3.0.0-7 is present but the building process will fail. The
  solution is to make nvidia-current only dependend to linux-
  headers-[generic|server|virtual].
  
+ Edit: I have made some tests now. It is even enough to install just
+ linux-headers-3.0.0-7-generic instead of linux-headers-generic. But only
+ linux-headers-3.0.0-7 is too less for the building process. So nvidia-
+ current should depend on linux-headers-3.0.0-7-[generic|server|virtual].
+ Another solution is to remove linux-headers-3.0.0-7 from the virtual
+ package <linux-headers> because the other 3 packages from it (linux-
+ headers-3.0.0-7-[generic|server|virtual]) depend already on linux-
+ headers-3.0.0-7. Maybe the entry should look then so:
+ 
+   Depends: <linux-headers>
+     linux-headers-3.0.0-7-generic
+     linux-headers-3.0.0-7-server
+     linux-headers-3.0.0-7-virtual
+ 
  The second problem is only a minor one:
  
    Depends: <xorg-video-abi-10>
      xserver-xorg-core
    Depends: xserver-xorg-core
  
  xorg-video-abi-10 is resolved to xserver-xorg-core but we have already
  such an entry. On of the both entries can be removed.
