For the typical user I assume that she follows the latest kernel, then
the meta package matches. Only if a user stays at an older version (for
whatever reason), she has to install the specific version.

I hope that is now clear enough[1]. Second paragraph in "Proxmox Plugin
Installation".

Enough hand holding for today ;-). If that is still unclear, patches
welcome, in the end it is just how dkms works anyways...
