[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Versioning convention

Hi!
Ive noticed that the versioning convention differs between
virtualbox-ose-modules (prebuilt) and Versioning convention differs
between virtualbox-ose-source.
A module built from source has name [module version]+[kernel version]
where the prebuilt has [kernel version]+[module version].
This will result in that module built from source will be "upgraded" to
prebuilt version when doing a apt-get upgrade.
For example is my 2.1.4-dfsg-1~bpo50+1+2.6.26-17 module built from
source overwritten by 2.6.26+1.6.6-dfsg-6+lenny1.
Is there any way to manually change the version number in the source?
And in later releases it would be great if the where to be named in the
same fashion.
Kind regards,
Andreas Gustafsson
