Public bug reported: There used to be linux-backports-modules packages in Ubuntu maintained by our kernel team before Quantal (the last release that have these packages is Precise). However these packages proved to be useful in our OEM projects and so I would like to re-introduce them into Ubuntu. After talking to Leann she agrees to let us (the hardware enablement team) to take over the packages.
We have re-packaged the codes by using newer debian build tools and added a few more meta packages for more flexibility, and so package naming and versioning will be different from before. Besides, a new LP project [1] has been created for this effort.
