Dear Maintainer,

I have a Debian Jessie system here with backports enabled.
The version of virtualbox I get from jessie-backports is 5.0,
  which isn't compatible with vagrant 1.6:


Please consider uploading a backport which supports VirtualBox 5.
Having that version information in the package's dependencies/suggestions
  would also be helpful, but I'm unsure how to do so properly.


Best regards,

  nicoo

Sorry but this won't be possible at the moment.

Also note that virtualbox seems to not be supportable in Debian
(#794466). I personally have not been using virtualbox for a long time,
and that is why I uploaded and maintain the vagrant-lxc and
vagrant-libvirt providers, which work well enough for me.

So unless someone else steps up to work on such a backport, it is not
happening.
