There is chance where user didn't install linux- before installing
dkms, no whether it is installed by ubuntu by default.
If dkms really depend on linux-headers package to work properly, it _should_
list it as dependency.
I couldn't figure out why LP:960770 got to this decision though.
dkms should _not_ depend on any headers package, because the correct
headers should already be installed by default. For 12.10 this was not
the case because of another bug..

Just for the record, because Henry Lin did contact me via email, the
packages site does display correct information here, the Packages file
for quantal contains the Recommends from dkms to linux-headers.
