[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#849633: virtualbox-dkms: Compiling error when updating kernel

[Karl Voit]

Package: virtualbox-dkms
Version: 4.3.36-dfsg-1+deb8u1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

I updated my kernel via apt. VirtualBox does not work since because of
error when compiling the DKMS modules. This issue persists since a few
kernel updates.

See the log output of /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/4.3.36/build/make.log
which I have attached.
