Description: Recent update of this package tries to pull down 'linux-headers' on systems that run custom kernels. This is a change in behavior as previous version allowed for linux-xxx-headers that are installed to work so long as the user installs both this package and the main community/virtualbox package at the same time.

Additional info:
* package version(s) 4.1.18-3

linux-xxx-headers are still optional. There is no change in this way.

Your issue probably come from dkms, which needs linux-headers. You custom kernel must provide linux-headers.
