Package: linux-headers-4.5.0-0.bpo.1-all-amd64
Version: 4.5.1-1~bpo8+1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Dear Maintainer,

after a fresh Netinstall of Debian Jessie (stable) I installed the backport
Kernel as much Hardware of Thinkpad T560 is not supported (mainly Sound and
WLAN as I noticed this far). It actually reaches the commandline but is unable
to start kwin. Whenever I try to start it with his kernel it aborts with fatal
error. Linux Mint KDE is actually able to use WLAN even within the Live Iso
Environment (although I don't like their closed source policy). Did not find
/var/log/boot nor /etc/init.d/bootlogd and /etc/init.d/bootlogs points Kernel
messages to /var/log/dmesg which is empty. /var is on a separate partition.
This is just to inform you. Thanks for your work, but I am afraid I have to
change Distro as it has to many issues on my platform. Maybe I'll try again in
half a year.

Oh and in my previous install from the same netinst iso I dist-upgraded to
testing which resulted in quite similar results of a broken system.
Thanks and Bye, Maria.

You haven't provided enough information to begin debugging this and it
seems you don't intend to do so, so I'm closing the report.  If you
wish to send another bug report the next time you try Debian, please
start by running 'reportbug kernel' as this will automatically gather
some useful information about your system.

As Debian now uses systemd by default, /etc/init.d/bootlogs does not
run and so /var/log/dmesg is not created.  The kernel log is available
by running 'dmesg' (recent messages only) or 'grep kernel:
/var/log/messages.1 /var/log/messages' (last 1-2 weeks).

Ben.
