"nvidia-dkms-545_545.29.06-0ubuntu0.23.10.2" package isn't automatically installed by metapackage "nvidia-driver-545_545.29.06-0ubuntu0.23.10.2"

Problem summary:
----------------
The metapackage "nvidia-driver-545_545.29.06-0ubuntu0.23.10.2" contains these dependencies for package "nvidia-dkms-545":

nvidia-dkms-545 (<= 545.29.06-1)
nvidia-dkms-545 (>= 545.29.06)

But installing that metapackage "nvidia-driver-545_545.29.06-0ubuntu0.23.10.2" doesn't requires nor auto-install package "nvidia-dkms-545_545.29.06-0ubuntu0.23.10.2". It seems that these dependencies aren't honored at all.

In fact you can manually install/uninstall "nvidia-dkms-545" package without having any effect to "nvidia-driver-545" metapackage.

Note: I haven't checked the open driver version but it probably has the same problem as dependencies are similar.
