[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#523951: virtualbox-ose: But apt is supposed to get the RIGHT dependencies!

Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.6.6-dfsg-3
Followup-For: Bug #523951


When running the 2.6.26-2-amd64 linux kernel, and choosing to apt-get install virtualbox-ose, it should get the right kernel module though. When you 
are running the 2.6.26-2-amd64 linux kernel, it should get the virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.26-2-amd64 package just as it gets the 
virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.26-1-amd64 package if you are running the 2.6.26-1-amd64 linux kernel! If there is a need for a workaround then, it is a 
bug! Maybe it is not a
virtualbox-ose bug? In which case, what would you recommend I file this as?
Sorry for bothering you again.
