Public bug reported:
This is not a build failure. It seems to be a simple oversight. What
happens is that when there is a kernel upgrade (at least as far as I can
tell), the dkms modules don't seem to be automatically installed for the
new kernel with the upgrade. When a virtual machine is started it
produces run errors. I'm not sure if this is a virtualbox-dkms package
error or a kernel package error. I hope it can be resolved.
