Package: virtualbox-dkms Version: 5.2.6-dfsg-3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
The issue arose after I upgraded from kernel version 4.13 to 4.14. The problem has been addressed in bug report #886747. However I can't verify the alleged solution, since the URL mentioned in the report (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=886474) is invalid. I followed the advice to upgrade the kbuild package, but to no avail. Here's the make.log: ---------------------------- Tue Feb 6 14:16:38 CET 2018 make: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.0-3-amd64' AR /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.2.6/build/built-in.o make[4]: *** No rule to make target '/var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.2.6/build/vboxdrv/linux/SUPDrv-linux.o', needed by '/var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.2.6/build/vboxdrv/vboxdrv.o'.
