Description

libplasma-dev (and its reverse dependencies) cannot be install in Ubuntu 20.04 (and possible other versions), if a recent nvidia driver is already installed.

The installation fails with the following error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libplasma-dev : Depends: libarrow-cuda-dev (= 7.0.0-1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libplasma700 (= 7.0.0-1) but it is not going to be installed

The problem seems to be the following dependency tree:

libplasma700 -> libarrow-cuda700 -> libnvidia-compute-460-server -> libnvidia-compute-470-server

libnvidia-compute-470-server conflicts with libnvidia-compute-510, on which nvidia-driver-510 depends.
