from IRC:

<h01ger> the debian-security-support package will tell you if a package is 
end-of-life in a distro
<h01ger> virtualbox wasnt part of squeeze
<h01ger> virtualbox is only in squeeze-backports, for that you need to ask the 
maintainer, but backports are generally asked to be security supported
<h01ger> so, yes, virtualbox-ose should be supported
<h01ger> (i have no idea atm if this is practical...)
<h01ger> https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_3_2 doesnt have 
an updated for venom yet, but           
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds says 3.2 is still 
supported...

Please reply if there are patches "somewhere".


cheers,
	Holger
