Description

Builds VirtualBox host kernel modules through DKMS so the host can run VirtualBox virtual machines. It is useful when kernel modules must match the currently installed Linux kernel.

This is a host driver package, not a VM manager by itself. Kernel module build failures can prevent VMs from starting after kernel updates, so keep fallback kernels or rebuild steps available.
