The Ubuntu Desktop Team would like to get policykit-1-gnome demoted to universe since it is no longer used in the default install. (See its package description.)
I believe screen-resolution-extra is the last thing holding that package in main.
gnome-shell provides polkit-1-auth-agent. You can see provides and reverse depends for a virtual package by running
$ apt-cache showpkg polkit-1-auth-agent
In my experience with demoting xterm to universe, it looked to me like Ubuntu's germinate doesn't handle virtual packages and alternate dependencies very well. I ended up having to put gnome-terminal as the first dependency in the list of alternates.
Suggestion 1
------------
Change screen-resolution-extra's dependency to:
gnome-shell | policykit-1-gnome | polkit-1-auth-agent
Suggestion 2
------------
Change nvidia-settings to Suggest instead of Depend on screen-resolution-extra. From the package's description, it sounds like screen-resolution-extra is not useful for a default Ubuntu install? If so, we can demote both screen-resolution-extra and policykit-1-gnome to universe. |

Suggestion 1
------------
Change screen-resolution-extra's dependency to:
gnome-shell <!s390x> | policykit-1-gnome <!s390x> | polkit-1-auth-agent <!s390x>
The !s390x is because gnome-shell isn't available on s390x currently and there isn't an alternative auth agent available in main.
