Since 12.10, the kernel header packages for Ubuntu are not installed by default. This breaks all DKMS modules, including virtualbox and nvidia- current. I maintain the DKMS module bbswitch and it is tempting to add a dependency on linux-headers-generic because Ubuntu/dkms screws this up. DKMS is

Well if they don't wish to install linux-headers-generic on a default Desktop install (Bug 1068488) or alter the deps on packages like nvidia-* to just linux-headers-generic instead of linux-headers-generic | linux-headers then having it in DKMS would seem reasonable ** Changed in: dkms (Ubuntu)
