The kernel-source package is a superset of the kernel-headers package, so the headers have not been "separated" from the rest of the source. The kernel headers package are for those people who are not satisfied with the headers in libc5-dev, (or don't have libc5-dev, in which case I wonder why they want the headers at all, since compilation (I think) depends on having libc5-dev), and also don't want to pull in the rest of the kernel sources. If this is not in the description, It should be, and I'll add it into the next version of the kernel-packages package (to be uploaded later today). manoj -- Everyone has a purpose in life.
