Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose

After installing virtualbox-ose-2.0.2-dfsg-0ubuntu3 on Intrepid beta (amd64), VirtualBox doesn't work. When run from the commandline, it complains:

"Could not find VirtualBox installation. Please reinstall."

Looking at the actual virtualbox shell script which is being run, it's failing because /etc/vbox/vbox.cfg is missing. This file doesn't seem to be provided by any package on intrepid. I assume it was included in previous package versions, and there was just a packaging error that caused it to be missed from the current package, but its absence pretty much breaks VirtualBox.
