Was it not called kernel-build-2.4.... ? > Additionally I want to suggest that kernel-source packages get a Provides: > kernel-header-$VERSION added. As i understand, that would be wrong, since the kernel-source contain the kernel source in packed form, while the kernel-header package contain them in unpacked form. The kernel-source is thus not able to provide siaid dependency without user interaction, and thus your proposal cannot be followed.
