20:59:38 rrs at learner:/var/tmp/Debian-Build/Result$ aptitude why 
virtualbox-dkms linux-headers-amd64
i   virtualbox-dkms Depends    dkms (>= 2.1.0.0)
i   dkms            Recommends linux-headers-686-pae | 
linux-headers-amd64 | linux-headers-generic | linux-headers

I am not sure if this is the same case for you. But if you have a 
standard Debian install, which configures to install the Recommends, 
then you shouldn't be running into trouble.

Perhaps easiest would be that you share with us the actual console logs 
of what you did.
