[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#481080: No virtualbox-ose-modules for amd64 kernel

[Vsevolod]

Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.5.6-dfsg-7
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 2.2.1

On amd64, virtualbox-ose recommends virtualbox-ose-modules package, but there is no virtualbox-ose-modules package for 
amd64 and there is no virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6-amd64 in Debian. This is violaton of debian policy 2.2.1.

VirtualBox is useless without kernel module, so amd64 users should install virtualbox-ose-source and compile kernel 
module with module-assistant. virtualbox-ose-source is not even listed as recommended for virtualbox-ose.

My proposal: virtualbox-ose must require at least one of the package: virtualbox-ose-modules or 
virtualbox-ose-source. Of course, having virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6-amd64 will be even better.
