Why does the maintainer has the time to unflag this package from the out-of-date status, when it actually is, and not update the PKBUILD with the current file checksum is beyond me.

There is a new version of the extpack file. Hence a new checksum: $ sha256sum Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-7.0.6.vbox-extpack 292961aa8723b54f96f89f6d8abf7d8e29259d94b7de831dbffb9ae15d346434
==> Validating source files with sha256sums... Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-7.0.6.vbox-extpack ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! -> error downloading sources: virtualbox-ext-oracle context: exit status 1

@HD_hirku: The package is not out of date, please unflag it and close the orphan request.

Coming upon a month out of date...... When can we see an update on this package?
LizziAS commented on 2023-02-14 17:14 (UTC)
there may not be any cversion checking but that may be the cause of the wrong checksum. this package fails the checksum and will not install
LizziAS commented on 2023-02-14 02:10 (UTC)
the version i dont even see on their website and the checksum doesn't match current version
Harvey commented on 2023-02-05 12:18 (UTC)
BTW, did anybody notice that there is a newer version 7.0.6a (20.1.2023) that the website links to now? At https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/7.0.6 both 7.0.6 and 7.0.6a can be downloaded. Does anybody know the difference?

@erholst This seems unnecessary, just use updpkgsums if you need new checksums or use the official values from https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/7.0.6/SHA256SUMS
erholst commented on 2023-01-31 22:32 (UTC) (edited on 2023-01-31 22:33 (UTC) by erholst)
I made a bash function to install it:
set_new_sha256_and_install_virtualbox_ext_oracle(){
cd /tmp; wget https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/virtualbox-ext-oracle.tar.gz
tar xvf virtualbox-ext-oracle.tar.gz
cd virtualbox-ext-oracle/
source PKGBUILD
wget $source
NEWSHA256=$(sha256sum *vbox-extpack|awk {'print $1'})
Line=$(printf "sha256sums=('"$NEWSHA256"')")
sed -i "s/sha256sums.*/$Line/g" PKGBUILD
makepkg -sc
sudo pacman -U *.pkg.tar.zst
}
set_new_sha256_and_install_virtualbox_ext_oracle;

There is no version dependency on this package on purpose! You could read comments back from 2011 to understand why.
