It's still not entirely clear to me, whether this transient issue (where linux- image-amd64 can be installed while the corresponding linux-headers-amd64 can't) is a "standard case" for backports, or it is an "exceptional" situation ? As a matter of facts, if it is a "standard case" for backports, I understand that specific precautions have to be taken before deciding to upgrade a kernel from backports, so that DKMS modules won't break. Is this correct ? Thank you for your time, Regards,
