Package: virtualbox
Version: 5.2.16-dfsg-3~bpo9+2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I tried and install VirtualBox on a clean installation of Stretch
9.5, from Stretch-backports, following the instructions given in Debian Wiki.
During the installation I got the following warning:
"...
Loading new virtualbox-5.2.16 DKMS files...
Building for 4.9.0-7-686-pae
Building initial module for 4.9.0-7-686-pae
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 4.9.0-7-686-pae (i686)

The file /var/.../make.log indicated above is attached.
Note that I could install successfully VB on a precedent installation of
Stretch 9.4, from the given backport at that time.
My (very elementary) knowledge of Linux environment does not allow me to
understand the cause of the problem.
Thanks for your attention
