Yeah, that's why we need to release Wheezy ASAP! ;)

I was pondering the idea of auto-generating part of this file so that
xorg can be installed only once, through the "normal" way of
installing packages => "special" virtualbox packages can be installed
"normally" too. My intent was to speed up the build time a bit.

Once we start playing with auto-generated pinning, we could as well do
the same for the looong "Unwanted package" list, and perhaps for the
firmware and Linux kernel ones too.

But I'm not sure the smaller result would be any easier to fit into
our brains...

Cheers,
