The same thing happened to me on trusty, amd64 with the latest version
of virtualbox 4.3.18.  The strange thing is, dkms.conf was located in
/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/4.3.18/build/, but locate couldn't find it.  It
found the previous one, v4.3.16, but not the latest one.  Only with
"find" could I locate it.
