Try getting the latest commits, I've done a few more that
fixes some package build issues.

Most notably, I've got rid of m-a, and wrote my own prep-deb-files
which is better (and fixes some problems in creating the deb/udeb) and
the fix you did to...

This don't seem to be the correct behavior if you compare
how other packages does it. iSCSITarget isn't the only package
I've used to create my own module package, but all use only
KSRC and KVERS... I've never seen anyone use KOSRC...

This is optional, and can be used directly on the debian/rules
command line. but putting the finished package(s) next to the
kernel source (which is supposed to be in /usr/src) is 'expected
behavior'.

Looks good.

Tripple check your zfsutils.udeb package. If you only took the first
commit, then /sbin/zfs is most likely a script :)

But otherwise you're doing it absolutly correct (except the KOSRC
which I'm not certain about - but as log as it's documented in a
line in debian/rules I don't care that much :).
