Oh, I notice that I have accidently filed this bug for the wrong
package. It is a bug in lirc-modules-sourc and obviously not linux-
source. Sorry.

** Description changed:

  The package lirc-modules-source contains build instructions in the file
  /usr/src/modules/README. It is explained in this file how to build the
  kernel-modules using make-kpkg. However, according to other bug reports
  for ths package, it is easier to build the modules using module-
  assistent. Maybe it is an idea to describe the build process using this
  package. It also doesn't require a full kernel source tree, as is stated
  in the README.
+ 
+ It should recommend this procedure:
+ 
+ modules-assistant fakesource
+ sudo module-assistant --text-mode --kernel-dir /usr/src/linux-source-`uname 
-r` build lirc
+ 
+ It would have saved me a lot of time if I knew this procedure earlier.
