Thanks mneno, you've got it.
The error is most probably triggered by the following part of the
virtualbox-ose.preinst script in 2.0.2
=============
if [ "$1" = "upgrade" -a "$new" != "$old" ]; then
db_title Upgrading virtualbox-ose
db_fset virtualbox-ose/upstream_version_change seen false
db_input high virtualbox-ose/upstream_version_change || true
db_go
db_get virtualbox-ose/upstream_version_change || true
if [ "$RET" = false ]; then
db_stop
exit 1
fi
db_stop
fi
========
Can anyone confirm that you've answered "no" to the question "Proceed
with virtualbox-ose upgrade despite losing snapshots?" ?
Thanks in advance.
