I don't know how to fix that... Do you have any clues?

As virtualbox can not find a specific file (cf. the error message), you should check if the docs are already build/available. If not, ensure that they are build. If they are already build/available, you would likely have to copy / symlink the files (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/virtualization/virtualbox/default.nix) so that they are reachable / usable once the build finished.
