Description

The VirtualBox guest tools / modules backport shipped in Tails is getting old. One should upgrade it to match current wheezy-backports one (Wheezy’s dkms package does not build against Linux 3.10 or something).

Note that the backport must be build in a pbuilder chroot that has, or prefers, the XOrg backported stack.

This is backporting effort is now irrelevant since Tails is based on Wheezy, and we install Wheezy Backports’ guest modules/additions.
