So I've fought with this quite a bit, and seems to just be a limitation
of dkms. The best thing I can do at dkms compile time (postinst) is
spit out the informative error message displayed:
You might try installing the meta package:
$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-server
or specifically
$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.24-23-server
to obtain the necessary build dependencies.
As Michael says, we do need linux-headers-server. But I don't think
that installing -server headers on every desktop that installs kvm-
source is correct.
I have to mark this 'won't fix' for now.
