Package: dkms
Version: 2.2.0.2-1
Severity: normal
I patched kernel source and rebuilt it using kernel-package.
dkms refuses to build modules for the installed kernel:
OptiPlex960:~# dkms build -m virtualbox -v 4.1.0 -k
3.0.0-1radeonr1-amd64
Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.0.0-1radeonr1-amd64 cannot be
found.
Please install the linux-headers-3.0.0-1radeonr1-amd64 package,
or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located
OptiPlex960:~# dpkg -l linux-headers-3.0.0-1radeonr1-amd64

linux-headers-* built by kernel-package do not seem to have used the
same layout as the regular linux-headers-* package, see also #784127
But then again, kernel-package was removed after the jessie release, so
I'm closing this bug as it should no longer happen in recent systems.
