Fwd: Debian 7.5 fails with kernel.org backports



Hi,

after upgrading to Debian 7.5 (linux-headers-3.2.0-4-common),
backports 3.10.2 [1] does not compile anymore [2]. Without it, I have
issues with Antheros WLAN cards.

Does Debian 7.5 include another backported versions? Can it be removed
and replaced by "official" backports 3.10.2 from [1]?

I also tried backports-3.13-rc8-1 [3] without success.

It could be that it is related to some e1000e backport (the sources
also don't compile anymore, I did not yet tested whether the driver
included in 7.5 works without backported driver) as in #705959 [4]?

How do I get wireless backports working again with 7.5?

Is it normal to have such breaking changes in a minor release? I was
really surpised, what can I do?

Any help appreciated!

Best regards,
Steffen
