Hey guys, sorry for the n00b question. I've searched through the list 
for solution, but nothing found...

It looks like the build system of the kernel runs apt-get to install
some package, but fails.

Please make sure you have the development package for your kernel
installed.  I guess it's called linux-headers and you have a stub there
instead of the real package.

In any case, the code that gives you an error is distribution specific
and not a part of compat-wireless, so please use the support resources
of your distro if you have further questions.
