Hello, I was trying to install the headers in my kali linux to solve an error that I got in virtual box for this I do the following:

$ dpkg -i linux-kbuild-4.6_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb
$ dpkg -i linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-common_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb
$ dpkg -i linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-all-i386_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb
$ dpkg -i linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-686-pae_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb

But when I updated the package linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-all-i386_4.6.4-1kali1_i386 even though I included that same package it gives me the same error:

dpkg -i linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-all-i386_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb

Basically my problem is that when I start virtualbox I get the following error so I was trying to update my headers the error is:

The first thing I did with a purge was to delete the installation of my virtualbox and dkms to make the installation clean with the new headers. First clean with purge (only necessary in case you have installed it):

sudo apt-get purge virtualbox\* 
sudo apt-get purge dkms\*

After we download the updated headers from the following page:

Once downloaded we install them:

$ dpkg -i linux-kbuild-4.6_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb
$ dpkg -i linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-common_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb
$ dpkg -i linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-all-i386_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb
$ dpkg -i linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-686-pae_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb

We do an update:

sudo apt-get update

In my case I was not installed linux-headers-4.6.0-kali1-all-i386_4.6.4-1kali1_i386.deb , still install dkms and virtualbox again and it worked correctly. To install dkms we do:

sudo apt-get install dkms

To install virtualbox we download it from the official page (preferably updated and if it is for kali linux we recommend using Debian Stretch):

And we install it like any other .deb package:

dpkg -i el_paquete_actualizado_de_virtualbox.deb
