Package: virtualbox-source
Version: 4.1.18-dfsg-1.1
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
Please send upstream:
The virtualbox-source package, version 4.1.18-dfsg-1.1, fails to build with a
3.7.x kernel. It complains about an undefined symbol VM_RESERVED. This
constant was replaced in 3.7, see:
