Public bug reported:
I have a new Ubuntu 20.04 x_64 install on my server and I installed
virtualbox via apt. I am able to run VMs and use vboxmanage, but
everytime I run vboxheadless to start a VM, I get the following error:
machine@user: $ vboxheadless -s vmname
Oracle VM VirtualBox Headless Interface 6.1.6_Ubuntu

VBoxHeadless: supR3HardenedVerifyFileFollowSymlinks: Failed to resolve
the real path '/usr/lib/virtualbox/components/VBoxREM.so': No such file
or directory (2)
machine@user: $ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Release: 20.04
machine@user: $ apt-cache policy virtualbox

Version table:
*** 6.1.6-dfsg-1 500

Expected result: vboxheadless works without error, and VBoxREM.so is
found in /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxREM.so.
