Package: virtualbox Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
As far as I know, the reason why virtualbox is moved to contrib is the toolchain to build the guest BIOS is non-free. The source code of the BIOS itself is viewable. So is it possible to reimplement the guest bios atop Coreboot, which already has a completely free toolchain? -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-proposed-updates') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=zh_CN.utf8, LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
