[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#556437: virtualbox-ose: please package virtualbox guest additions

[Alexandru Cardaniuc]

Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.6.6-dfsg-3
Severity: normal

VirtualBox Guest Additions for version 1.6.6 that is in stable (lenny)
are not available for downloading anymore. So they can't be accessed.
That limits the functionality of the program.

Please consider packaging VirtualBox Guest Additions within
virtualbox-ose or as a separate package.


Thanks for packaging virtualbox-ose
