Package: kernel-package
Version: 11.001-0.1
Followup-For: Bug #461228
I have very similar issue when using module-assistant to compile nvidia module
against headers packaged by make-kpkg.
The procedure I used is the following:
1) get linux-2.6.24.tar.bz2 from kernel.org
2) configure the kernel to include ieee1394 (support for firewire camcorder)
instead of useless firewire (this is the reason to abandon the debian stock
kernel)
I also changed the processor type to Core2 instead of generic i686,
specified a few other things specific to my laptop architecture.
(I can attach the config if needed).
3) compile:
make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --append-to-version -d630 linux_image
linux_headers linux_doc
4) cleanup:
rm -Rf linux-2.6.24
5) install:
dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.24-d630_2.6.24-d630-10.00.Custom_i386.deb
linux-image-2.6.24-d630_2.6.24-d630-10.00.Custom_i386.deb
6) use module-assistant to build nvidia:
module-assistant -l 2.6.24-d630 a-i nvidia
the last step gives the following errors:

and so on.
Interestingly, under very same setup, if I ommit the step 4 (cleanup
of linux sources), then dpkg creates a link to the sources instead
of messed up headers and everything compiles and installs fine.
So my guess is that make-kpkg omits some directory that is crucual
for compiling modules.
