I have virtualbox, -dkms and -qt installed.  I noticed a -source
package and wondered if I needed it, or would derive some benefit
from installing it.

After some research I concluded that -dkms and -source are
alternatives to each other: if you have one you don't need the other.
It would be helpful if this information were included in the long

Package: virtualbox-source

Severity: minor

I have virtualbox, -dkms and -qt installed.  I noticed a -source
package and wondered if I needed it, or would derive some benefit
from installing it.

After some research I concluded that -dkms and -source are
alternatives to each other: if you have one you don't need the other.
It would be helpful if this information were included in the long
descriptions of the two packages.
