Bug Description
Linux-meta-
there will appear build errors... for the kernel-module
Kindly update to Version VirtualBox 4.2.8
4.1.12 was issued on 2012-04-02, so it didn't know about newer kernels
Doing so has the potential to close bug1016165 (93 users affected as per 2013-09-03) and bug1081307 (124 users affected as per 2013-09-03)
If VirtualBox is not maintainable due to SRU restrictions in Ubuntu it should get _removed_ from the Ubuntu-sources > 12.04.1.

The situation on VirtualBox 4.1.18 on Quantal 12.10 & Raring 13.04 is alike...
The situation there could be easily solved by promoting the package in the PARTNER repository, like Debian does with /contrib/
Thanks in advance for helping to make Ubuntu better every day!
