This is only a harmless warning.

You have to look at the file "/var/log/airdriver" for the log of what
went wrong.

Paul has sponsored the package. It is on the NEW queue [1] waiting for
the ftp-masters approval.

About the airdriver-ng patches I think that the >90% of this patches are
not necessary anymore if you are running a modern kernel (>=3.2). This
patches are dated from [2006-2010] [2] and I don't think they will apply
on any kernel greater than 2.6.2X


What kind of wireless card do you have? What kernel are you running?


Have you tried to inject without patching your kernel? I suggest you to
try to put your wireless card in monitor mode with airmon-ng without
patching the driver. For me works out of the box.


Once upstream fixes their problem with the tracker I should talk with
them about this patches because I feel that the great majority of this
patches either were merged upstream long ago or need to be refreshed to
apply on a modern kernel.
