Control: reassign -1 dkms
Control: retitle -1 dkms should pull in the correct linux-headers package
Thanks Ben. Omar: This bug is specific to dkms. That package should pull
in the correct linux-headers package (based on the architecture), which
is required to build the virtualbox-dkms package.

That said, I am using the same version on the same kernel, on my
Debian box. My guess is that you do not have the relevant
linux-headers package installed.
@VBox Maintainers: I am seeing too many similar bug reports. Perhaps
we should add a Recommends on the kernel headers metapackage. But the
catch is that there is no linux-headers meta package like we have for,
say, linux-tools.
@Debian Kernel Maintainers: What would you recommend we add a
Recommends for ?
Nothing. Reassign this to dkms (with lower severity) and let them
handle it. (Not that they will do anything, judging by the current bug
list and the last maintainer upload)
By the way, building VBox with m-a *is* still broken; please see
<https://bugs.debian.org/732521#32>.
Ben.
