  It seems the problem comes from the migration to signed
kernel/modules in testing/unstable. The backport of the linux package
do not revert this part, so only linux-image-*-unsigned packages are
present in backport. And linux-signed has not been backported.

  Ben: what it the correct path? Should linux-signed be backported?
(with other dependencies?) Or should the "-unsigned" part of the
linux package be reverted in the backport suite? Or should the
backport of linux-latest be modified to point to the -unsigned images?

  Regards,
    Vincent
