If you have kernel-source , you don't normally need kernel-headers , and
vice-versa. Most modules will simply build with the kernel-headers
package . It also installs in a way that is already laid as an extracted
source tree . /lib/modules/<version>/build is a symlink to
/usr/src/kernel-headers-<version> .

I wonder if the "build" symliink from above should be a good enough
hint.

I figure it would be easy to package the source deb as a -source package
and build it with module-assistant, but I can't do more than guessing,
because the drivers for that device are guarded behind a rather drakonic
license that practically forbids me any tinkering (not to mention
requing me to authenticate just for the pleasure of downloading them).

Thanks, but no thanks.
