But, I have installed virtualbox-3.0 which is non-free :
$ apt-cache policy virtualbox-3.0
virtualbox-3.0:

This is not a bug on vrms.
I downloaded the package virtualbox-3.0_3.0.6-52128_Debian_lenny_amd64.deb
from that site and this is what I get:
,----
| chagas:/tmp$ dpkg -I virtualbox-3.0_3.0.6-52128_Debian_lenny_amd64.deb | grep
Section
| Section: misc
| chagas:/tmp$
`----
It should be "Section: non-free/misc".
This is a bug in the package from virtualbox. I'm including them in the
CC and I'm closing the bug.
Regards, Rogério Brito.
