> Yet another option would be to add Conflicts tag with nvidia package.  

I can add Provides/Obsoletes to the NVIDIA KMP, so this won't trigger any
needed user input during installation. Of course if the customer decides to
uninstall the NVIDIA RPMs again, drm-kmp-default won't be reinstalled
automatically.

We can add this to the documentation. Release notes and

Well, I'm not aware of any customers yet, who tried to install these packages.

I also thought about removing the NVIDIA Device IDs from Supplements of
drm-kmp-default, but it would be a regression for many people not knowing to
install the drm-kmp-default package manually. And there are also hybrid
machines (Intel+NVIDIA), so for these this won't help anyway.
