Package: virtualbox-dkms
Version: 5.2.4-dfsg-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

after upgrading last week i noticed that virtualbox does not work,
it cannot load it's kernel driver. now i had enough time to take
a closer look on it and found that libelf-dev is a new dependency.
after installing it, virtualbox works as excepted.
please find the log below.
thanks,
csaba mate
