Public bug reported:

I just installed Ubuntu 12.04.3

The first time I checked the synaptic package manager, these headers were 
already installed.
linux-headers-3.8.0-29-generic
linux-headers-3.8.0-29

I used synaptic to install:
build-essential (11.5ubuntu2.1)
virtualbox-dkms (4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.3)
virtualbox (4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.3)

During the installation of virtualbox-dkms, the following appeared:

------------------------------
Deleting module version: 4.1.12
completely from the DKMS tree.
------------------------------
Done.
Unpacking replacement virtualbox-dkms ...
Setting up virtualbox-dkms (4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.3) ...

Checking the log file aforementioned, the following excerpts seemed
important/relevant:
