It's too tight a dependency - it's now impossible to install
nvidia-kernel-source.

If you try to install nvidia-kernel-source it depends on nvidia-glx which
depends on the kernel package - except you can't make the kernel package
till you have the source installed.

(Resent so that it's visible on the bug tracker page.)
