Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.6.2-dfsg-4
Severity: wishlist
Thank you for maintaining the Debian virtualbox-ose package: it's
wonderful to be able to get premade Free Software VirtualBox OSE
packages by typing a single command. The following report is not a
bug report, but a news report. :)
A new upstream release, VirtualBox 2.0.0, came out today. The
ChangeLog mentions many changes, including "The GUI was converted from
Qt3 to Qt4", "New-version notifier", and "Created separate SDK
component featuring a new Python programming interface on Linux and
Solaris hosts". It would be great if you could package it when you
have the time.
Cheers,
Jason
Here's the full story from http://virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog though
I removed the lines relating to non-Linux hosts.

In addition, the following items were fixed and/or added:
