I can't install the headers to the kernel, because
linux-headers-2.6.33-2-amd64 depends on (not available)
linux-kbuild-2.6.33 and the headers are neccessary to build modules
for the kernel.

And I don't see the benefit of uploading linux-headers-2.6.33-2-amd64
to the repository if it cannot be installed.
