Actually, ubuntu-drivers-common only exists since quantal. So this would actually be nvidia-common and we can see a fix for this bug here:

nvidia-common (1:0.2.44.2) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * NvidiaDetector/nvidiadetector.py: When a package has multiple words
    separated with -'s, use only the last element as the driver version.

Given that this was released on 10/2, and what we can see in DpkgTerminalLog.txt, its likely that the user did not have the fixed version of nvidia-common installed.
