I didn't force the deps to linux-headers because you could use the kernel (linux, linux-lts, linux-zen, linux-grsec, etc) you prefer (or all together). I will add a message with the next release of virtualbox.
Would it be possible to depend on a "Provides" that all the different kernel header packages share? Similar to how nvidia-libgl, catalyst-libgl, and mesa-libgl all provide the "libgl" dependency. That would solve the presumably-very-common case where users initially installed virtualbox without any host headers at all, and are now landing in a broken state by default. (Or would that mean that the different header packages conflict where they didn't before?) - Jack
