nvidia-331-updates should be the dependencie of nvidia-current.

Nvidia 304 is a legacy driver (as 173.14, 96.43 and 71.86), and Nvidia 331 is the latest long lived branch version of the driver, what fits best for Trusty.

See: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html

PS: I think "current" means the latest 331 driver, currently nvidia-current is a transitional package for nvidia-304, and sometimes it is older than nvidia-304-updates, it is a bit confusing.
