On one VirtualBox instance, I compiled linux-image and linux-headers
packages. They install just fine on that machine. I copied them to
another VirtualBox machine set up basically the same, and it would not
install successfully. It says it can't be installed because it depends
on itself, and it's not installed. (lol)

Please install the linux-headers-3.9.4-debserver package,
or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located
Questions:
- Can you provide more information about the workaround?
- Is there any way I (as a non-coder) can accelerate this bug getting fixed?
Thanks,
