Every time there's an update for nvidia or nvidia-dkms (I'm not sure which), the install process takes a really long time, and seems to install it for all previous versions of the linux kernel, despite them not being installed on my system.

For example:

==> dkms install --no-depmod nvidia/495.44 -k 5.14.10-arch1-1 ==> dkms install --no-depmod nvidia/495.44 -k 5.14.13-arch1-1 ==> dkms install --no-depmod nvidia/495.44 -k 5.14.14-arch1-1 ==> dkms install --no-depmod nvidia/495.44 -k 5.14.5-arch1-1 

...and so on.

As far as I know, I only have the latest linux kernel installed. Is this all necessary? And if not, how do I keep it to only updating for my current kernel?
