I don't think it's a good idea to use sudo to invoke make for the build.

/lib/modules/2.x.y/build is a symlink which points at
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.x.y. Strangely, dpkg reports that it belongs to
the kernel-image-2.x.y package, so I'd expect you to have it too.

Anyway, you'd need /usr/src/kernel-source-2.x.y.  Do you have the
kernel-source package installed which corresponds to your running
kernel?

(where x.y are your kernel major and minor version numbers,
respectively)
