Bug Description
My laptop (Aspire VN7-591G) comes with an nVidia graphic card that is not supported by default in Ubuntu Trusty (14.04.2, amd64).
I installed the Xorg-edgers PPA to be able to install nvidia-340 which contains the proper drivers for my card (and allow me to switch between the Intel and the nVidia GPU).
Later, I realized there is a dependency issue with package libgbm1:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
libgbm1
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
Using aptitude to have more information, I get this:
--\ Packages being automatically held in their current state (1)
i A libgbm1 10.1.3-0ubuntu 10.6.0~git2015
libgbm1 will not be upgraded to version 10.6.0~
* libgbm1 replaces libgbm1:i386 (< 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.3)
It appears that this package is used by the xorg-edgers PPA:
% apt-cache policy libgbm1
libgbm1:
Installed: 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.3

I tried to force-install package libgbm1 but get the following error:
sudo apt-get install libgbm1

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libgbm1 : Depends: libgl1-mesa-dri (= 10.6.0~
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
What can I do to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
P.S.: This issue was reported on askubuntu [1] but I didn't get any feedback.
