Well, not exactly but perhaps this is an indication of success:

/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/kernel-3.10.10-200.fc19.x86_64-x86_64
/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/kernel-3.10.7-200.fc19.x86_64-x86_64
/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/kernel-3.10.9-200.fc19.x86_64-x86_64
/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/4.2.16/3.10.10-200.fc19.x86_64
/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/4.2.16/3.10.7-200.fc19.x86_64
/var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/4.2.16/3.10.9-200.fc19.x86_64

Thanks for the explanation,

Bob
