virtualbox-ose

[Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org>]

Hi,

could you please unblock virtualbox-ose 1.6.2-dfsg-6 which was just uploaded to incoming?

Here are the changes to 1.6.2-dfsg-4 which is in Lenny:

1.6.2-dfsg-4 => 1.6.2-dfsg-5

  * Updated initscript to better handle LSB compatibility, yet again closes: #474089
  * In VBox.sh honor LD_LIBRARY_PATH if already set, closes: #496953
  * Changed rules file for guest-module to correctly build modules with
    symbols, thanks to Bastian Blank for the hint.
  * Do not build guest modules in parallel, closes: #494475
  * Demote module-assistant deps to Recommends; closes: #495671.
  * Don't prepend current directory to LD_LIBRARY_PATH if it isn't set.

The script changes are rather smallish, the module build changes, however, are
important or else virtualbox-ose modules won't work with kernel 2.6.26 inside
the VM.

1.6.2-dfsg-5 => 1.6.2-dfsg-6

  * Apply changesets 12299, 12303, 12305, 12307 and 12308 from upstream SVN
    to fix errors running 2.6.26-686 kernels in a Virtual Machine. Patch
    created by Frans Pop <fjp@debian.org>. Closes: #497505.

These changes are needed to make virtualbox-ose work with kernel 2.6.26-1-686 again.

Thanks.

Michael
