[Bug 840512] Re: Files missing from package linux-headers-3.0.0.9

Bug still exists on linux-headers-3.0.0-10

It is observed that whenever the Ubiquity installer is out-of-date, i.e.
it bundles an earlier version of linux-headers than in the software
centre, I would have no problem building kernel modules simply by
installing:

  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

Once Ubiquity is updated to the latest linux-headers, I will need to use
the workaround:

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.0.0-10
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

Title:
  Files missing from package linux-headers-3.0.0.9

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After installing Ubuntu / Lubuntu 11.10 Beta 1 from Ubiquity /
  Alternative methods, the following files are missing:

  /usr/src/linux-headers-3.0.0.9/KBuild
  /usr/src/linux-headers-3.0.0.9/KConfig
  /usr/src/linux-headers-3.0.0.9/Makefile

  Even though the linux-header* packages are installed. As a result, any
  compilation of kernel module projects would fail.

  The only workaround I have so far:

  sudo apt-get remove linux-headers-3.0.0.9
  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

  NB: this bug has appeared and disappeared momentarily around Alpha 3,
  and has now come back to haunt us
