[John Schroeder <jschroed@xxxxxxxxx>]

I updated to the 3.19.0-26 kernel today and the fglrx-core package
failed to install when dkms tried to install it. Switching to the fglx
packages here in the proposed branch solved my issue. It would seem that
these packages need to be promoted from the proposed branch since others
will have issues with upgrading to the kernel. (Booting to the old
kernel did not work. I guess that when the dkms failed to run for the
new kernel, it also didn't run for the old kernel.)

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  An update to the lts-vivid backported kernel (3.19.0-26) in Trusty and to the default kernel in Vivid, pulled in a commit that made pci_ignore_hotplug() GPL only. As a result, the DKMS module fails.

  [Test Case]
  Install the new packages and check that DKMS doesn't fail.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low, the patches are already included wily.
