Paths and package names do not match in OSE debian package
| Reported by: | David Clymer | Owned by: | Frank Mehnert |

Description
the debian/rules file uses $(package) to build path names, meaning that the package is installed in /usr/{lib,share}/virtualbox-ose.
However, various scripts (init script, VBox.sh) expect the package to be installed in /usr/{lib,share}/virtualbox, which causes breakage.
I've attached a patch to fix this, though I'm not sure it's optimal.

I've fixed this issue a little bit different. I actually changed all pathes to /usr/lib/virtualbox-ose and /usr/share/virtualbox-ose. The current SVN should work fine.

Ok, I guess you are referring to the debian/ directory of the OSE tarball, right? Thanks for the report, we will fix this.
