Which packages did you install on Debian? On the Debian guest you have to
install the virtualbox-ose-guest* packages. The virtualbox-guest-addition
package is to be installed on the host as the description says.

This suggests that you did not install the packages needed.

It definitely is. AFAICT it works on other installations.
