I'm getting these errors when updating this package:
error: 'jre8-openjdk-headless-8.u112-1': description file is missing
error: 'jre8-openjdk-headless-8.u112-1': file list is missing
Yet the jre8-openjdk-headless-8 directory does exist in /var/lib/pacman/local and isn't empty, and pacman -Qi shows it is version .u112-1. Happens using pacaur and yaourt, pacaur gives a little more info in the error. What can I do to remedy it?
Thanks.
EDIT: my mistake, had to set default java enviro to 8 today after -Syyu, all is well.

rdesktop is woefully out of date. I would add remmina as an optional dependency and perhaps drop rdesktop altogether. There's also gnome-rdp, although I haven't tried it and don't know what state it's in.

I found the difference. Apparently having TAR_OPTIONS="--xattrs" in the environment causes tar to use a format different from the default.

Well, as workaround just use the "Download snapshot", extract in /tmp/vbep
open the PKGBUILD and change to "pkgver=5.0.24" and "md5sums=('f576d8521e6315b507ae7daab495c1e6')" respectively.
Keep only PKGBUILD and virtualbox-ext-oracle.install files. Delete all the other inside /tmp/vbep
run:
makepkg
and then:
sudo pacman -U virtualbox-ext-oracle-5.0.24-1-any.pkg.tar
Done.

Why this package in your repository (http://seblu.net/a/$repo/$arch) is outdated?
$ pacman -Sl seblu | grep virtualbox
seblu virtualbox-ext-oracle 5.0.20-1

I appreciate your comment but it works perfectly for me since years.
grawity commented on 2016-06-14 05:32 (UTC)
I appreciate the attempts to "shrink" the extpack file, but VirtualBox isn't actually able to import it after the repacking. (In fact I don't think it has worked in the last *year* or so.) The install process always fails with:
VBoxManage: error: RTVfsFsStrmNext failed: VERR_TAR_UNSUPPORTED_PAX_TYPE
It seems that VirtualBox only understands --format=gnu and --format=ustar, *not* the default 'pax' format. (The original file uses GNU tar format.)

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