Martin, the reason I filed this bug against ubuntu-drivers-common is
that the behavior of this package's tests is at odds with proposed-
migration. There is a new version of perl waiting to reach vivid, which
causes ubuntu-drivers-common's tests to be run and report a failure
because of a regression in a package that is *not* a dependency of
ubuntu-drivers-common. perl, or other dependencies of ubuntu-drivers-
common, shouldn't find themselves blocked because of a regression in an
nvidia driver package; and testing that the nvidia dkms drivers can be
built should happen /when the kernel package is updated/, which didn't
happen here. The tests are currently happening in the wrong place to be
useful for proposed-migration, and that should be fixed.
** Changed in: ubuntu-drivers-common (Ubuntu)
