[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#873101: virtualbox: stretch-backports of virtualbox

[Lucas Nussbaum]

Package: virtualbox
Version: 5.1.22-dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

While I understand the reasoning behind not shipping virtualbox in
stretch, I wonder if you have considered shipping it in
stretch-backports?

Thanks

Lucas
