...where "software" specifically means "kernel modules".  I suspect
most people will never have a reason to install a Debian
kernel-headers package.  If you built your kernel from source, you can
use the unpacked source tree for its headers.  If you're not trying to
compile a kernel module that's not packaged for Debian already and
don't have a kernel source tree sitting around, you don't need this
package.
