I don't use the debian kernel-source package at all.  I download
Linus's kernels and install them in /usr/src/linux and compile them as
per /usr/src/linux/README.  I have never had any problems with this,
and otherwise have a full Debian system.

IMHO the kernel-source package can never give you the fine-tuned
kernel you need for your particular machine and your particular
tastes.
