When you are going to install backport packages (bpo), you must
explicitly indicate apt-get to do so, using the -t option to
target backport repositories. The problem is that the release
version of initramfs-tools is lower than the needed one in
backports and it won't be installed if target is not set.
If using Wheezy, you must use apt-get this way:
apt-get -t=wheezy-backports install linux-image-3.14.0.bpo.1-amd64
