Overview

Request 646211 superseded

- Make necessary updates so that VirtualBox will build with Python 3.7 - boo#1113894
Change kernel module code to build against the API changes in kernel 4.20 - This change
adds file "fixes_for_4.20.patch".

- Require(pre) virtualbox by the -qt package: otherewise it might
happen that virtualbox-qt is installed before virtualbox, which
then results in files being assigned to group 'root' instead of
'vboxusers', as the group is only created later.

- Version bump to 5.2.20 (released October 16 2018 by Oracle)
This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
VMM: fixed task switches triggered by INTn instruction (bug #17979)
Storage: fixed connecting to certain iSCSI targets (bug #17507)
Storage: fixed handling of flush requests when configured to be ignored when the host I/O cache is used (bug #17573)
Drag and drop: implemented support for UNC paths (bug #17146)
Drag and drop: fixed resuming operation when restoring from a saved state (bug #17649)
Drag and drop: fixed copying files with long file names (> 248 characters) from guests to Windows hosts (bug #17447)
Drag and drop: fixed handling files with Unicode names on Windows guests (bug #15501)
Drag and drop: fixed copying empty (0-byte) files to / from guests (bugs #14863 + #17443)
Drag and drop: fixed copying over files from hosts to Linux guests (bug #16025)
Networking: restore connectivity for guests bridged to host adapters that were unavailable temporarily (Windows hosts, bug #17090)
Guest Control: fixed hang when using --wait-stdout and/or --wait-stderr (bug #17386). Needs updating Guest Additions
Video recording: fixed starting video recording on VM power up (bug #17307)
Linux Additions: various build fixes for kernel modules on recent distributions, and made sure modules end up in initramfs files
Linux Additions: build fixes for 4.19, thank you Larry Finger
Linux Additions: various small fixes for video driver
This version also addresses the following vulnerabilities: CVE-2018-0732, CVE-2018-2909, CVE-2018-3287
CVE-2018-3288, CVE-2018-3289, CVE-2018-3290, CVE-2018-3291, CVE-2018-3292, CVE-2018-3293,
CVE-2018-3294, CVE-2018-3295, CVE-2018-3296, CVE-2018-3297, and CVE-2018-3298. bsc#1112097

can't install virtualbox-devel-5.2.20-426.1.i586:
  nothing provides python3-virtualbox = 5.2.20 needed by virtualbox-devel-5.2.20-426.1.i586

-%files -n python3-%{name} -f %{_tmppath}/SITE_FILES

So you merged the files section into the previous files list

Yes. In Python 3.7, vboxapisetup.py no longer accepts the --record-rpm switch, and SITE_FILES does not exist. The individual files must still be listed. I have reverted this change for 3.6.

I have no idea why this happened.


Dominique Leuenberger's avatar

you meant to keep the %files -n python3-%{name} part, but only delete the -f %{_tmppath}/SITE_FILES


Larry Finger's avatar
author source maintainer

I just created request id 646694 to supersede this one. The basic problem is that vboxapisetup.py in Python 3.7 no longer accepts the --record-rpm switch, thus SITE_FILES does not exist, and the individual files must still be listed. For 3.6, that part of the spec is now unchanged.

/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/ => %python3_sitelib

That's the right macro to use here


Larry Finger's avatar
author source maintainer

Thanks. The new version uses this macro.

Invalid files section (python-virtualbox package is lost); python file list should use macros; the path changes with every python version
