I'm the original report of bug 326431. I've marked that bug as invalid based on the document cited in this issue.

To avoid confusion someone should also apply the same change to "vboxgtk", which currently installs to the "System Tools" menu folder just like the old virtualbox icon used to.

Cheers,
