vboxdrv: 'Default Stop'-value causing trouble on recent Debian and derivatives -> fixed as of 2 Aug 2011

Description

The "Default Stop" comment of vboxdrv comprises just run level 1.

On Debian lenny symbolic links K*vboxdrv are established in /etc/rc{0,1,6}.d nevertheless.
On Debian squeeze, a link K*vboxdrv is created in /etc/rc1.d only. Moreover, installing VirtualBox yields an error message

update-rc.d: warning: vboxdrv stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (1)

which can be reproduced by running update-rc.d vboxdrv defaults.
The difference between lenny and squeeze is probably caused by different default behavior of update-rc.d.
Btw. I consider this error message to be buggy itself - should be "... arguments (1) ... values (0 1 6)".

According to http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=37659 Debian derivates seem to be affcted, too.

All other init-scripts belonging to VirtualBox 4.0.6 define 0, 1 and 6 as stop-runlevels, same thing for all init-scripts included in 3.2.12.

Confirmed on Ubuntu 11.04. Could you please fix your packages?

This was fixed a while ago and the fix will be included in any future releases. I find it slightly silly, as there is nothing that we need to do before shutdown (I thought the current wisdom was to only do important things so as not to waste time), but if they insist then fine.
