Yes, there is, copying the Ben's answer in case you didn't read it:

Anyway there is no reason to drop support for m-a. Dkms only needs a dkms.conf
and a couple of lines in postinst, and yes I agree, using dkms *and*
m-a/k-p/l-m-e in a module source package is *not* mutually exclusive.


Cheers,
Giuseppe.
