Hi,
the new virtualbox doesn't build in such old systems, because of kbuild and other stuff...

the policy is that when something disappear from oldstable the version contraints might be removed, and such stuff wasn't needed even before oldstable.

What I'm trying to do is clean up the package, but I can revert if needed :)

cheers,

G.

Is there any good reason to do this?
We have many derivatives, and having the minimum version dependencies listed explicitly, held a lot.

What value does it bring to remove those versioned dependency?
