Bug Description

Relevant system information here: https://pastebin.canonical.com/p/q6XqWt6THQ/

I was expecting that when I installed linux-modules-nvidia-generic-418 that I would get an option to accept or reject a EULA. However, on installation, no prompt is given to me, and after a reboot, I am able to see the driver with a `nvidia-smi` command.

After doing some digging, installing this package writes out /etc/default/linux-modules-nvidia with latelink=true, and my debconf database also has a boolean for nvidia latelink set to true.
