Public bug reported:
I am using Ubuntu 24.04 and Nvidia driver 535 on GeForce 940MX. I
received the latest Ubuntu software update on 7/2/2024 PST. The update
contains nvidia driver and libnvidia updates. However, the update cannot
proceed due to the following errors.
```

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-dkms-535 : Depends: nvidia-kernel-common-535 (= 535.183.01-0ubuntu1)
but 535.183.01-0ubuntu0.24.04.1 is installed
nvidia-driver-535 : Depends: nvidia-compute-utils-535 (= 535.183.01-0ubuntu1)

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).
```
I do not want to mess with the drivers' versions. How can I
systematically fix these dependency problems? Thanks ahead.
