I think you need to install linux-headers-FOO not linux-source-FOO. The
former is needed to build 3rd party modules against the linux-image-FOO
packages while the later is used if you want to build you own kernel
from scratch.

For this reason linux-source-FOO contains an unconfigured source tree
(hence no `include/config/auto.conf'). linux-headers-FOO contains that
file.
