For future trouble shooting it will help you to know how to find information for yourself. Did you for instance now go back and check what the other automatically installed "linux-header" pkgs are for (i.e. those that were pulled in by you installing linux-headers-3.14-1-all-i386) ? This time it probably didn't do much harm, but the more you clutter up your system with unwanted stuff the harder it might become to support it in the future. -- Klaus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

exact name of headers for 3.14-1-486
Sorry if my subject sounds a little pompous but I keep hitting this warning when trying to install vbox guest addtitions where is says it cannot find the headers for my running kernel. It's a little exasperating because when I first saw that I installed a bunch of header from a pile of pkgs. uname -r: 3.14-1-486 aptitude search headers |grep ^i i linux-headers-3.14-1-486- Header files for Linux 3.14-1-486 i A linux-headers-3.14-1-686-pae- Header files for Linux 3.14-1-686-pae i linux-headers-3.14-1-all-i386 - All header files for Linux 3.14 (meta-pack i A linux-headers-3.14-1-amd64 - Header files for Linux 3.14-1-amd64 i A linux-headers-3.14-1-common - Common header files for Linux 3.14-1 i A linux-headers-3.14-1-common-rt - Common header files for Linux 3.14-1-rt i A linux-headers-3.14-1-rt-686-pae - Header files for Linux 3.14-1-rt-686-pae Shouldn't it be the very first one on that list?
