:/

Finally upgraded libmbim to 1.13.0 development version also on Debian
Jessie.
I've also created a littl bash script to produce a log of commands
launched:

-------------------------
$ cat olicard-mbimcli.sh 
#!/bin/sh
set -x
mbimcli --verbose -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --query-radio-state
mbimcli --verbose -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --set-radio-state on
mbimcli --verbose -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --register-automatic
mbimcli --verbose -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --connect=ibox.tim.it --no-close
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I launched it as follows:

# olicard-mbimcli.sh &> olicard-debian.log

Log file "olicard-debian.log" is attached to this message.

As regard same test under slackware I had to edit the script a little:

- $DEV var introduced cause olicard dongle is linked to /dev/cdc-wdm1
  instead of cdc-wdm0. Same commands as above anyway...

"-slackware" Log generated in the same way of debian system:

# olicard-mbimcli.sh &> olicard-slackware.log

And attached to this message.

Hope you could say something more by compare these to logs.

Yes, I understand your hint just now, after have read something about
debian packages:

1. Obtain libmbim development sources tarball from git:
-------------------------------------------------------
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libmbim/libmbim
cd libmbim
NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-gtk-doc
make
make distcheck
---------------

2. Obtain last (unstable) libmbim debian source package:
------
# pwd
/build/libmbim/1.12.2
# apt-get build-dep libmbim
# apt-get source libmbim
# ls
libmbim-1.12.2  libmbim_1.12.2-2.debian.tar.xz  libmbim_1.12.2-2.dsc
libmbim_1.12.2.orig.tar.xz
---------------------------

3. Copy "debian" subdirectory from debian sources to new vanilla sources
------------------------
/build/libmbim# ls -F *
1.12.2:
libmbim-1.12.2/  libmbim_1.12.2-2.debian.tar.xz  libmbim_1.12.2-2.dsc
libmbim_1.12.2.orig.tar.xz

1.13.0:

/build/libmbim/1.13.0# cd 1.13.0

/build/libmbim/1.13.0# tar xvJf /build/git/libmbim/libmbim-1.13.0.tar.xz

/build/libmbim/1.13.0# ls
libmbim-1.13.0

/build/libmbim/1.13.0# cp ../1.12.2/libmbim-1.12.2/debian libmbim-1.13.0/

/build/libmbim/1.13.0# cd libmbim-1.13.0/
-----------------------------------------

3. Change package version editing "debian/changelog".. I've edited it by
hand but there was a command to do that:

----------------------------------------------------------
/build/libmbim/1.13.0/libmbim-1.13.0# debchange -v 1.13.0
---------------------------------------------------------

4. Rebuild debian binary packages
--------------------------------

/build/libmbim/1.13.0/libmbim-1.13.0# fakeroot debian/rules clean
/build/libmbim/1.13.0/libmbim-1.13.0# fakeroot debian/rules binary

/build/libmbim/1.13.0/libmbim-1.13.0# ls ..
libmbim-1.13.0                      libmbim-glib-doc_1.13.0-1_all.deb
libmbim-glib4_1.13.0-1_i386.deb  libmbim-utils_1.13.0-1_i386.deb
libmbim-glib-dev_1.13.0-1_i386.deb  libmbim-glib4-dbg_1.13.0-1_i386.deb
libmbim-proxy_1.13.0-1_i386.deb

5. Finally install them and solve some deps if needed:
-------------------------------------
/build/libmbim/1.13.0/# dpkg -i *deb
/build/libmbim/1.13.0/# apt-get install -f
# dpkg -l |grep libmbim
-----------------------

Last to verify packages installed.
