Public bug reported: after installing virtual box: `sudo apt install virtualbox` there seemed to be an error with my kernel: `kernel headers for this kernel does not seem to be installed.`.
I installed the headers: `sudo apt-get install linux- headers-5.8.0-33-generic` and wen trying to `sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms` there is an error: ``` ERROR: Cannot create report: [Errno 17] File exists: '/var/crash/virtualbox-dkms.0.crash' Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.8.0-33-generic (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/6.1.10/build/make.log for more information. ``` and after `sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox`: ``` Job for vboxweb.service failed because the service did not take the steps required by its unit configuration. See "systemctl status vboxweb.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. Job for virtualbox.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status virtualbox.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. invoke-rc.d: initscript virtualbox, action "restart" failed. ● virtualbox.service - LSB: VirtualBox Linux kernel module Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/virtualbox; generated) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2020-12-18 22:39:07 CET; 5ms ago Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8) Process: 42222 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/virtualbox start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) dic 18 22:39:07 chale-MS systemd[1]: Starting LSB: VirtualBox Linux kernel module... dic 18 22:39:07 chale-MS virtualbox[42222]: * Loading VirtualBox kernel modules... dic 18 22:39:07 chale-MS virtualbox[42222]: * No suitable module for running kernel found dic 18 22:39:07 chale-MS virtualbox[42222]: ...fail! dic 18 22:39:07 chale-MS systemd[1]: virtualbox.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE dic 18 22:39:07 chale-MS systemd[1]: virtualbox.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. dic 18 22:39:07 chale-MS systemd[1]: Failed to start LSB: VirtualBox Linux kernel module. ``` ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: virtualbox-dkms 6.1.10-dfsg-1~ubuntu1.20.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.8.0-33.36~20.04.1-generic 5.8.17 Uname: Linux 5.8.0-33-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.14 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip DKMSKernelVersion: 5.8.0-33-generic Date: Fri Dec 18 22:29:02 2020 DuplicateSignature: dkms:virtualbox-dkms:6.1.10-dfsg-1~ubuntu1.20.04.1:/var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/6.1.10/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c:596:43: error: ‘struct mm_struct’ has no member named ‘mmap_sem’; did you mean ‘mmap_base’?
