[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#868282: virtualbox-dkms: kernel modules fail to build due to missing files

[Jon]

Package: virtualbox-dkms
Version: 5.1.22-dfsg-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

My apologies if I misjudged the impact, but I'm pretty sure this
failure is universal.

4 files are missing from the virtualbox-source and virtualbox-dkms
packages that render the driver unbuildable. These files were present in
5.1.22-dfsg-2 but are now missing in 5.1.22-dfsg-3.

./include/VBox/vmm/cpumctx.h
./include/VBox/vmm/hm_svm.h
./include/VBox/vmm/hm_vmx.h
./include/VBox/vmm/pdmnetinline.h

(The full path varies between the -dkms and -source package variants,
but they are missing in both)

Here is the DKMS log against 4.9.0-3-amd64. DKMS against 4.11.0-1-amd64
and manual building via virtualbox-source against 4.9.0-3-amd64 get the
same result.

I downgraded virtualbox-dkms to 5.1.22-dfsg-2 and the drivers build succesfully.
