Aur devs,
The virtualbox 5.2 branch is unsupported as of July 2020. Oracle continues to put out testbuilds for 5.2, but currently it does not build with 5.8 (LTS is fine). 5.2.44 was the last release for the 5.2 branch and there will be no further updates to support Linux 5.8. What do I do with the package? Do I mark it LTS only in some way, or just disown it or have it removed?

Given that there are only 4 votes even before 5.8 was released, there doesn't seem to be a lot of demand for the package. Maintaining it until the very end of obsolescence probably isn't worth it so I would file a removal request citing the incompatibility with 5.8. If someone really wants to resurrect it, they can.
