virtualbox kernel module FTBFS on intrepid (2.6.27)

@Mario, weren't you supposed to be a bug contact for this?

Can you provide some more details here? The kernel module built fine
for me using the generic kernel. Please provide a make.log and
indicate what headers were installed

The module build fine with version 2.0

Ah i see, it's because linux-headers won't necessarily be there. I'll add it to debian/control.

This bug was fixed in the package virtualbox-ose - 2.0.2-dfsg-0ubuntu2

---------------
virtualbox-ose (2.0.2-dfsg-0ubuntu2) intrepid; urgency=low

  * debian/virtualbox-ose.install:
    - Install VBoxHeadless (LP: #271753)

    - Include symlink for VBoxHeadless
  * debian/virtualbox-ose.files/VBox.sh:
    - Remove check for vboxusers, not necessary w/
      hardening.

      w/ hardening.
