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

@fenugrec, I'd try removing both packages. Then, install virtualbox alone. When finished, install virtualbox-ext-oracle. Make sure both are at latest before installing.

I hope it helps!

Hi, usually when I have problems it's usually something I did wrong and can figure out, or something already explained in the comments. This one has me stumped :

(trying to install 7.0.20; virtualbox-bin 7.0.20 already installed)

Done. But itsn't THE solution. Thanks for the piece of advice.

@karhu: Remove virtualbox-ext-oracle 7.0.14-1 first. Then update virtualbox to 7.0.16-1. Then install virtualbox-ext-oracle 7.0.16-1

Hi When I try to update virtualbox, I got this error : erreur : la préparation de la transaction a échoué (la satisfaction des dépendances a échoué) :: l’installation de virtualbox (7.0.16-1) casse la dépendance « virtualbox=7.0.14 » requise par virtualbox-ext-oracle It's because in the pkgbuild : depends=("virtualbox=${pkgver}") I try to change the "=" with "<=" or ">=" but it doesn't work. Could you change it please, thanks.

Is it possible to set virtualbox-kvm as a dependency in alternative to virtualbox?

Please see MartinX3's comment and update the PKGBUILD or the issue will occur every time virtualbox's version is than the virtualbox-ext-oracle package.

This package causes an upgrade error each time.

:: Installation von virtualbox (7.0.10-1) verletzt Abhängigkeit »virtualbox=7.0.8«, benötigt von virtualbox-ext-oracle

Please change the PKGBUILD from depends=("virtualbox=${pkgver}") to depends=("virtualbox>=${pkgver}")

Thank you @nursoda , this is an easy way to fix it and it works like a charm.

nursoda commented on 2023-04-20 18:38 (UTC)

I solved it by installing the new virtualbox skipping dependencies using pacman -Sd virtualbox and then performing the system upgrade with the AUR tool of your choice, for me: pikaur.
