Yes, and if dkps depends on linux-headers-2.6-$subarch, that will do the trick at least for the default kernel. (Depending on just linux-headers-2.6 is not enough, since linux-headers-2.6.xx-y-$subarch provides it). > Or, better, DKMS as an "autoinstall" option in its configuration file: we could > use a kernel postinst hook to check this value, and if it's set to yes (or > true, or 1, or whatever), auto-download and install kernel-headers.
