[Pkg-dkms-maint] Bug#554843: bullding pure binary deb packages for modules which do not depend on dkms

YES! YES! YES!

People using Debian in production environments *need* the ability to 
generate stand-alone module packages. I don't want compilers and kernel 
source/headers on production boxes for a shit-ton of reasons. Requiring 
dkms (which requires kernel headers, gcc, build-essential, etc.) is not 
a solution. I'm glad one-off users are finding this easier than m-a, but 
please fix this!
