+virtualbox-ose (3.1.4-dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ virtualbox-ose no longer depends on QT4 to not force anyone to install QT4
+ even if the virtualbox-ose provided gui is not installed. However, QT4 is still
+ recommended because there is one little utility in virtualbox-ose that is
+ linked againbt QT4. This utility, VBoxTestOGL, is used to test for OpenGL
+ capabilities. So if you use OpenGL you might want to install QT4 nonetheless.
+ If you know your OpenGL capabilities you can of course also replace VBoxTestOGL
+ by /bin/true or /bin/false depending on your capabilities.

+virtualbox-ose (2.0.6-dfsg-1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+ The way Host Interface Networking works has been completely rewritten with
+ VirtualBox 2. The main difference is that the complex bridging configuration
+ is no longer necessary. With the new mechanism, to enable Host Interface
+ Networking, all you need to do is to open the Settings dialog of a virtual
+ machine, go to the “Network” page and select “Host Interface” in the drop down
+ list for the “Attached to” field. Finally, select the desired host interface
+ from the list at the bottom of the page, which contains the physical network
+ interfaces.
