OK - did a complete removal of the virtualbox components shown by
Synaptic Package Manager<br>
<br>
Then apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade followed by a reboot<br>
<br>
Then the apt-get install line from the Debian wiki after checking
the sources.list:-<br>
(I notice that virtualbox..._AMD64 is listed although I couldn't see
it in the contrib on the mirror site)<br>
However Synaptic shows only virtualbox and virtualbox-dkms are
installed after this and virtualbox-4.3 line is blank and not
installed<br>
<br>
console log is shown below:-<br>

I think I was originally using the version direct from Oracle -
it was only when that stopped working correctly (a week or so

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