Possible missing kernel-headers for your running kernel.

It's difficult to see from the log you posted because it is mixed with English and French. I would guess it might be due to a missing dependency though. Have you tried to make sure your host is updated? ( new installs often need to be updated ) Also you could try running the following from the host terminal:
The try installing again ( not the vboxconfig )
Note: I usually find it better to install using dkpg in an elevated terminal so you can see any errors and avoid any conflict with the distros repo.

get this patch and place it in /usr/share/virtualbox/src
sudo wget http://paste.siduction.org/20170629003423

sudo patch -Np0 < 20170629003423
run vboxconfig by executing
/sbin/vboxconfig
