"make-kpkg" is in the "kernel-package" package.
("apt-get kernel-package" to install).

After installing it, read /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/README.gz, it
contains very detailed steps on how to use it.  At its simplest it can
be:
    <configure kernel>
    make-kpkg clean
    make-kpkg --revision=Custom.1.0 kernel-image
    make-kpkg --initrd --revision=Custom.1.0 kernel-image <-- if initrd used
    <install the new kernel>


As you will see in the README file, the "fakeroot" package is recommended
as a means to use make-kpkg as a non-root user.  (make-kpkg will
complain about some of the steps if you are not root, or do not use
fakeroot, or equivalent.)  Then all that is required as root is the
kernel install.
