Bug Description

When I ran 2024.03.04 Focal aws-5.15 through ADT testing I got a regression on nvidia-graphics-drivers-340 that looks different than the previous hinting. The test log had "dpkg: error: version '-' has bad syntax: revision number is empty". I have included the output log from that test with this bug report.
