Yes. There's two different types of kernel headers here: libc kernel headers and kernel kernel headers ;) Userland programs should never need to use the kernel kernel headers, but others can get what they need from the libc kernel headers in libc-dev. If you want actual kernel kernel headers to compile a module or something, then install the kernel-headers-blah package that matches your kernel. -rob
