Can we please overcome this "but you are using Ubuntu" topic? It should
make no difference whether I file such a general bug from my Ubuntu
laptop or one of my Debian server instances. I agree a "this is broken,
please fix it" bug would be invalid if I use an Ubuntu version. But that
does not apply to this bug.

Anyway it would be great to get version 5.0.0 of VirtualBox into Debian.
Thank you for maintaining this package.
