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

Please do add the exact version dependency so that upgrades of the main package prompt a conflict that we then know to go fix. Thanks. depends=("virtualbox=${pkgver}")

But do not bump pkgrel :D

stmc commented on 2013-10-21 18:29 (UTC)

add to pkgbuild: depends=("virtualbox=${pkgver}")

BTW, it can be fixed by explicit version in "Dependencies", can not it be?

@ngoonee, that's because this package was update to 4.3 while virtualbox in the repos is still 4.2.18. You shouldn't update this package until virtualbox itself is updated.

Will be soon out of date, as VirtualBox 4.3.0 was released on 15 october : http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/press/2033376

@reed1 What's your virtualbox version? Had the same error message, reason was that I had updated the ext-pack to 2.18 but virtualbox was still 2.16.

eworm commented on 2013-09-10 07:28 (UTC)

I do not get this, so I suppose you need to reboot or shutdown guests, reload the new host modules and then start the guests.

@eworm When I fired up a VM with USB Controller enabled, if I disable it the error disappear. It's not like that before, probably after I upgraded the kernel. I reinstalled virtualbox and this aur package, nothing works.. :(, I haven't restared my machine tho, can't restart now ~ ❯ VBoxManage list extpacks Extension Packs: 1 Pack no. 0: Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack Version: 4.2.18 Revision: 88780 Edition: Description: USB 2.0 Host Controller, VirtualBox RDP, PXE ROM with E1000 support.
