few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help

Bug description:
  When upgrading from 16.10 to 17.04 using `update-manager -d`, the
  `nvidia-375` DKMS modules are not compiled for the new kernel.

  The result is that the user must run `apt install --reinstall
  nvidia-375` and reboot.

  To reproduce this:

  - Clean install of 16.10 on a system with NVIDIA graphics
  - Install `nvidia-375`
  - Run `update-manager -d`, complete all steps, then reboot
  - You will be unable to login until running `apt install --reinstall nvidia-375`
