I think you need to use 'make-kpkg buildpackage' to build all of the
packages (image, source, headers, etc.) and get them GPG-signed.
Similarly, if you have add-on modules, use 'make-kpkg modules' rather
than modules-image.

(ISTR that mini-dinstall insists that things be properly GPG-signed,
in addition to having a .changes file.  At any rate, the full
make-kpkg instantiations do everything that's required.)
