The user may want to do it by hand. /usr/src# tar xjf linux-uvc.tar.gz /usr/src# cd modules/linux-uvc /usr/src/modules/linux-uvc# make /usr/src/modules/linux-uvc# make install But I'm checking this in another source module packages, and it seems to me that there's no standard. fglrx-kernel-src recommends m-a; alsa-source doesn't even suggests it; ndiswrapper-source, ipw2200-source and ipw3945-source depends on it. So I think that doing this by hand can be considered not a debianized form of doing, and this possibility doesn't need to exist. I'll never use it like this myself. For me you can close this bug, I thought all packages recommend m-a, but I only checked fglrx-kernel-src.
