[Bug 1090196] Re: ndiswrapper-dkms 1.57-1ubuntu1: ndiswrapper kernel module failed to build [Cannot find kernel build files in ... Please give the path to kernel build directory with the KBUILD=<path> argument to make]

[Brian Murray]

I suspect that people have installed the lts backport kernels but did
not choose to install linux-generic-lts-saucy such that linux-image-
generic-lts-saucy was installed but not linux-headers-generic-lts-saucy.
The dkms dependecy on linux-headers was removed due to bug 960770.

+ Please ensure that you have the package linux-generic-lts-quantal or
+ linux-generic-lts-saucy installed which depends on linuxheaders-generic-
+ lts-[quantal|saucy].
