During my last couple updates, I've found this output during the standard pacman -Syu:

I'm not exactly sure what the solution would be here. In my use of locate with grep to find reference to this nvidia version, it indeed gives a decent amount of output. Specifically this
locate 495.46 | grep nvidia
Outputs a large amount of output from my file system, mainly within /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/
Right now, there's no noticeable problem with my computer, but I don't like to leave errors like this gone unchecked. Any help in troubleshooting this issue would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
