Bug description:
  Currently, having different nvidia modules for the same kernel ABI is
  allowed. For example, both linux-modules-nvidia-450-5.4.0-66-generic
  and linux-modules-nvidia-460-5.4.0-66-generic can be installed at the
  same time. This can cause systems to boot using the wrong kernel
  modules.

  A simple fix is to use the same dependency on nvidia-kernel-
  common-$flavour for the binary (ABI) packages that the linux-modules-
  nvidia-$flavour packages already have.
