I have installed Kali in VirtualBox and now trying to install Guest Additions to get full screen view.
I updated and installed my packages and installed dkms. When I try to install linux-headers I get the following:

linux-headers-4.14.0-kali1-amd64 is already the newest version (4.14.2-1kali1).

The headers installed are as follows:

You sould follow the tutorial to install VirtualBox Gest Additions on the Kali Linux Official Documentation.
The VirtualBox Guest Additions provide proper mouse and screen
integration, as well as folder sharing, with your host operating
system. To install them, proceed as follows.
Start up your Kali Linux virtual machine, open a terminal window and
issue the following commands.
apt-get update
apt-get install -y virtualbox-guest-x11
reboot
Using the method in the official doc I get the exact same error....The installation fails during the installation of the main Guest Additions module, right after the script reports not being able to find the headers (however, this was also reported in the official documentation).
