I did search for some time and these are some steps i executed to work 
around the problem. In Ubuntu repositories there is VirtualBox 4.3 
version as you can see from package info:

Package: virtualbox
Priority: optional
Section: multiverse/misc
Installed-Size: 57210
Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss at lists.ubuntu.com>
Original-Maintainer: Debian Virtualbox Team 
<pkg-virtualbox-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org>
Architecture: amd64
Version: 4.3.10-dfsg-1
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.15), libcurl3 (>= 7.16.2), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), 
libgsoap4, libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4), libpython2.7 (>= 2.7), 
libsdl1.2debian (>= 1.2.11), libssl1.0.0 (>= 1.0.0), libstdc++6 (>= 
4.6), libvncserver0, libvpx1 (>= 1.0.0), libx11-6, libxcursor1 (>> 
1.1.2), libxext6, libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), libxmu6, libxt6, zlib1g (>= 
1:1.1.4), python (>= 2.7), python (<< 2.8), python:any (>= 
2.7.1-0ubuntu2), python2.7, adduser
Pre-Depends: dpkg (>= 1.15.6~)
Recommends: virtualbox-dkms (= 4.3.10-dfsg-1) | virtualbox-source (= 
4.3.10-dfsg-1), virtualbox-qt (= 4.3.10-dfsg-1), libgl1-mesa-glx | 
libgl1, libqt4-opengl (>= 4:4.5.3), libqtcore4 (>= 4:4.5.3), libqtgui4 
(>= 4:4.5.3)
Suggests: virtualbox-guest-additions-iso, vde2
Conflicts: virtualbox-2.0, virtualbox-2.1, virtualbox-2.2, 
virtualbox-3.0, virtualbox-4.2

but i think that it is build for 3.13 kernel or some version older than 
3.19 which is now the latest Ubuntu 14.04 version. The first packages 
you are referring to are used for build but as far as i now 
virtualbox-5.0 is only available from Official Virtualbox.org 
repository. Maybe i am wrong. I am just starting with .deb Distros.
