Agreed, the HW enablement stack is a big help if you want to use the
open drivers, but can work against you if using fglrx.

Subject: [Bug 1424491] Re: apt-get fails to install fglrx or fglrx-updates in 14.04.2 and 12.04.5

14.04.1, 12.04.4, 14.10 and 15.04 (development) all work.  You could use
14.04(<.2) or 12.04(<.5) until this is sorted out and then upgrade.

Just don't install the Hardware Enablement Stack for now.

It's not skin off of anyone's nose if you decide to go back to Windows.
