[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#830878: virtualbox: switch to python3

[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort]

Package: virtualbox
Version: 5.0.22-dfsg-2
Severity: wishlist

It'd be nice to see virtualbox ported to python3. I'd like to get rid of
python2 on my system and this is one of the last rdeps.

Thanks,
Emilio
