Package: alsa-source Version: 1.0.23+dfsg-2 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line *** module-assistant fails to auto-install the more recent alsa-modules from 'alsa-source'-package when running a non-standard custom built kernel. It issues an error about missing kernel-headers, although there are configured kernel-sources present, which should be sufficient for this task. The file README.Debian in /usr/share/doc/alsa-source/ describes building a modules-package with make-kpkg this did not work for me either. The communication in Debian is bad. Most maintainers do not tell me whether they need more info, or what about fixing the reported problems.
