Notice:

To avoid crashes when upgrading Guest Additions from version 6.x to 7.x on Windows guests, uninstall the old Guest Additions first, then reboot, and then install the new ones. It's recommended to do all these operations in Safe Mode. See this upstream bug ticket for more details.

Could you check whether there is a "dkms.conf" file in /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/5.0.16/source/? This directory should be a symlink to /opt/VirtualBox/src/vboxhost It is done at the very end of the PKGBUILD: # Register into DKMS install -dm 755 "$pkgdir/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/$pkgver" ln -s '/opt/VirtualBox/src/vboxhost' "$pkgdir/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/$pkgver/source"

dkms autoinstall: Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file. File: does not exist.

@the9ull: The package automatically registers itself with DKMS. A simple "dkms autoinstall" probably would have sufficed. The package warns for this during post_install: cat <<EOF ==> Remember to add allowed users to the vboxusers group: ==> # gpasswd -a USERNAME vboxusers == ==> To compile/load virtualbox modules automatically at startup you can add dkms in your DAEMONS == ==> To build and install your modules run dkms autoinstall EOF (in contrast with my earlier comment, the package has always done this)

Hello, with this package I had to build the kernel module myself, and no instuctions are provided by the isntall script. I runned: # cd /opt/VirtualBox/src/vboxhost/vboxdrv # make && make install # gpasswd -a USER vboxusers I relogged and all worked.
