Public bug reported:

There are apparently missing dependencies on package "virtualbox"...
Installing linux headers is not enough...   Installing virtual box from
virtualbox.org works, sort of... USB devices no longer connect..  Seems
like the two packages conflict with each other, and that since virtual
box initially fails in install, it all get hard to uninstall, and the
two packages mix..   I guess if the package can't be installed properly,
then perhaps it shouldn't be in the repo...

Some stats:
