Notice:

To avoid crashes when upgrading Guest Additions from version 6.x to 7.x on Windows guests, uninstall the old Guest Additions first, then reboot, and then install the new ones. It's recommended to do all these operations in Safe Mode. See this upstream bug ticket for more details.

Yep, SDK is now included in the package.

Yikes, whatever changes were made to accommodate the SDK or in the 5.2.20 release has ballooned the package size by 31.74 MiB. Is that expected? I haven't seen that big of a jump in vbox package size in years.

@Kr1ss Thank you for reporting this. Fixed.

There seems to be a conflict w/ the virtualbox-sdk package from community @dbermond (b/c of usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/vboxapi*).

Would u pls consider adding that to the PKGBUILD ?

Thx a lot for the package, btw !

EDIT : Thank you for fixing this so quickly !

@GeneArch Please do not report problems when using a modified PKGBUILD.

I don't know if this will be a problem in future upstream stable releases.

GeneArch commented on 2018-07-24 13:11 (UTC)

with the older 5.2.16 everything works fine.

So its the development snapshots this is happening with. Do you know if this will be a problem when those migrate to released builds?

thanks

GeneArch commented on 2018-07-24 13:00 (UTC)

Sorry, this happens with the development snapshots:

https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Testbuilds

pkgver=5.2.97 _build=123594

which i built by obvious tweaks to your PKGBUILD.

I need to go back and test 5.2.16.

@GeneArch I cannot reproduce your issue. VirtualBox is loading fine for me and everything is working as expected. Tested with Plasma and LXQt.

You said Plasma 5.11.1 but I think that you mean Qt 5.11.1, because Plasma is currently at 5.13.3.

Here is a link to a possibly related problem: https://www.virtualbox.org/pipermail/vbox-dev/2018-July/015046.html.

Please share your solution if you find something.

Running on plasma 5.11.1 i get problems with this package running setuid. Error on attempting to run Virtualbox gives:

Qt FATAL: FATAL: The application binary appears to be running setuid, this is a security hole. Aborted

Removing the setuid - app now starts but then complains it needs to be setuid root.

Thoughts on how to fix?

Thanks
