Please have a look in /var/lib/dkms for a full build log and attach it here.

Not original reporter, but I'm having the same issue. I'm not very knowledgeable, but here's the file I found this in /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/390.42/build/make.log

I hope this is what you're looking for, I'm happy to help however I can! :^)
