Package: virtualbox-ose-source
Version: 1.5.2-dfsg2-5
Severity: normal
I wonder what the rationale behind this change was:
[ Daniel Baumann ]
* Upgrading virtualbox-ose-modules recommends to depends.
Are people no longer allowed to build kernel modules and copy them
into /lib/modules/... manually?
The reason I currently do that is that I run self-compiled upstream
kernels and vboxdrv source for 1.5.2 does not compile against those.
I have some simple changes that make the compilation succeed (see [1]),
but that means that it is extremely inconvenient to have to use
module-assistant.
Please consider reverting. Recommends should be enough in practice now
that apt/aptitude install recommends by default.

Closes: 456989
Changes:
virtualbox-ose (1.5.2-dfsg2-7) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Patrick Winnertz ]
* Do only recommend the virtualbox-ose-modules package. Maybe someone
would like to compile it on it's own, or not with m-a. (Closes: #456989)
.
[ Hilko Bengen ]
* Build system: a large move towards using dh_install
- This requires that we force the build output dir to a fixed location.
- The dh_install call needs to go to the `install' target.
* Leave out code/data for test cases from virtualbox-ose binary package
.
[ Michael Meskes ]
* Only suggest guest-sources in guest-utils. With l-m-e expected to include
the guest-modules in the near future, this should be sufficient.
* Rearranged parts of the debian dir.
* Replaced our patch to not need kernel sources by new configure option
taken from svn.
.
[ Daniel Baumann ]
* Bumping policy also in module controls, no other changes needed.
