Hi,

I am in need to install the ALPS psmouse driver and solution is provided by Dave (see bug 1041916).
But, following instructions i am unable to run dkms properly. I keep getting the following message

make KERNELRELEASE=3.8.0-19-generic -C /lib/modules/3.8.0-19-generic/build M=/var/lib/dkms/psmouse/alps-1.3/build/src psmouse.ko....(bad exit status: 2)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/dkms_packages.py", line 22, in <module>
    import apport
ImportError: No module named apport
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.8.0-19-generic (x86_64)

I am running Raring.
Is there any way to update DKMS to the above released patch with out disturbing the stable release updates set for raring?

Thanks
