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

Hello seblu, I know there's already an out-of-date flag, while things are somewhat different this time. With virtualbox 5.1.10, virtual machines refuse to start with older extension packs: $ vboxmanage startvm win7 Waiting for VM "win7" to power on... VBoxManage: error: The device helper structure version has changed. VBoxManage: error: If you have upgraded VirtualBox recently, please make sure you have terminated all VMs and upgraded any extension packs. If this error persists, try re-installing VirtualBox. (VERR_PDM_DEVHLPR3_VERSION_MISMATCH) VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component ConsoleWrap, interface IConsole virtualbox has just entered [community] 90 minutes ago, so I just more people will be affected by this issue. For others come here, perlsite's comment below (on 2016-07-01 18:32) is helpful. Just change pkgver=5.1.10 and md5sum to ac90d8356746754eadc3f28ef77174f0

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.

For the latest version, use: pkgver=5.1.8 md5sums=('79a603d85d38a5c793673ddd7f2f166b')

For the latest version, use: pkgver=5.1.6 md5sums=('d01ce44646623ee90cecda322c7f34f9')

For the latest version, use: pkgver=5.1.0 md5sums=('06c5c47fd1d21bf6701a2f3b2146c7e1')

rdesktop is woefully out of date.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.

perlsite commented on 2016-07-01 18:32 (UTC)

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.
