No? It doesn't? For starters, there's no package called "virtualbox-modules".

Assume that's just a typo...

$ pkgfile -l community/virtualbox-host-modules
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/lib/
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/lib/modules/
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/vboxdrv.ko.gz
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/vboxnetadp.ko.gz
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/vboxnetflt.ko.gz
community/virtualbox-host-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/vboxpci.ko.gz

$ pkgfile -l community/virtualbox-guest-modules
community/virtualbox-guest-modules /usr/
community/virtualbox-guest-modules /usr/lib/
community/virtualbox-guest-modules /usr/lib/modules/
community/virtualbox-guest-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/
community/virtualbox-guest-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/vboxguest.ko.gz
community/virtualbox-guest-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/vboxsf.ko.gz
community/virtualbox-guest-modules /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.6-ARCH/vboxvideo.ko.gz

Looks like the kernel from [core] to me...

4.2.6-2 is in community-testing, and requires the kernel from [testing]. Notice the recurring "testing" theme.

edit: ah good. the depends are fubar.

the dependency is wrong.

Fine, falconindy, I said "requires" instead of "depends" and "package" instead of "PKGBUILD" (virtualbox-modules being a split package and appearing as that name on the front page).

the correct name for these 2 packages are :

virtualbox-guest-modules and virtualbox-guest-utils

Just to be clear:

> pacman -Si community/virtualbox-guest-modules
Repository : community
Name : virtualbox-guest-modules
Version : 4.2.6-1
...
Depends On : linux>=3.7 linux<3.8
