我正在尝试在我的 Ubuntu 18.04 上安装 VBoxGuestAddition 5.1.2，并通过运行以下命令安装了所需的所有软件包
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install build-essential dkms module-assistant linux-headers-$(uname -r)
sudo m-a prepare
然后我选择了 设备 -> 插入 Guest Additions CD 映像并运行 Vboxguestaddition 安装。但是，我收到了此错误
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

然后我检查了/var/log/VBoxGuestAdditions.log文件
vboxadd.sh: failed: Look at /var/log/vboxadd-install.log to find out what went wrong.
vboxadd.sh: failed: Please check that you have gcc, make, the header files for your Linux kernel and possibly perl installed..
当我检查/var/log/vboxadd-install.log文件时，我发现/lib/modules/5.3.0-42-generic/build/include/linux/version.h缺少了它，并且内核配置无效

我不确定如何修复此问题。我已经安装了内核 (5.3.0-42-generic) + 标头、gcc，但我不知道为什么标/linux/version.h头缺失或内核配置无效。任何帮助都将不胜感激。

似乎 VBoxGuestAdditions 5.1.2 与 Ubuntu 18.04 不兼容。我尝试将我的虚拟盒管理器安装到最新版本并下载最新的 VBoxGuestAdditions (16.0.4)，现在它可以正常工作了。
