- Version bump to 5.1.30 (released 2017-10-16 by Oracle)
- Update vboxdrv.sh as recommended in bsc#1060072.
- Move files /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxKeyboard.so, /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxOGLrenderspu.so, /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSharedClipboard.so, and
/usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSharedCrOpenGL.so from package virtualbox to virtualbox-qt. With this change, package virtualbox no longer needs libX11.

This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
GUI: translation updates
GUI: Fixed double mouse cursor when using mouse integration without Guest Additions, actually a Qt 5.6 bug fixed with QT 5.6.3 (Mac OS X hosts only; bug #15610)
Solaris hosts: allow increasing MTU size for host-only adapter to 9706 bytes to support jumbo frames
Linux hosts: glibc 2.26 compile fix

- Make changes suggested in bsc#1060072
The specific changes are:
(1) Remove the test in vboxdrv.sh as the script tests for the wrong file. This is safe because
if the package is not installed, the script will not be there.
(2) Move VBoxDbg.so to package virtualbox-qt. With this change, packages libQt5Core, libQt5Gui
and libQt5Widgets are no longer needed with package virtualbox. As a result, a text-only
server no longer needs to load QT to support headless virtual machines.
- Update "fixes_for_4.14.patch" to handle additional API changes in kernel 4.14.
These include the following:
removal of gamma_set and gamma_get from struct drm_fb_helper_funcs
removal of set_busid from struct drm_driver
replacement of drm_pci_init() with pci_register_driver()
replacement of drm_pci_exit() with pci_unregister_driver()
removal of load_lut from struct drm_crtc_helper_func
- Update "fixes_for_4.14.patch" to handle missing SKB_GSO_UDP in kernel 4.14

Hi Larry,
I finally put some effort in fixing the VM autostart mechanics,
that are terminally broken in the current package (due to the way,
systemd interacts with Sys-V init scripts, stop operations aren't
executed most of the time, because it lost track of the state...).
With these changes, I'm able to reliably start/stop all VMs on
hosts ranging from 13.2 to 42.2. I'm confident, this will improve
for all systemd based systems, i.o.w all those systems we care about..
It resembles pretty much the same scheme, vboxdrv is using already.
Give it a try.
- reorganize vbox autostart, coping with systemd:
- add /usr/lib/virtualbox/vboxes.sh (based on /etc/init.d/vboxes)
- add /usr/lib/systemd/system/vboxes.service
- remove /etc/init.d/vboxes

This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
VMM: reset the TSC on VM reset to work around a Windows bug (bug #16643)
Audio: fixed memory leak when enabled with VRDP connections (5.1.24 regression; bug #16928)
Audio: fixed creation of too many sound sinks on Linux hosts when using the PulseAudio backend (bug #16938)
Audio: implemented record gain registers for AC'97 emulation; those are needed for newer Ubuntu guests which rely on those when controlling gain and muting the recording (capturing) levels
Storage: fixed hang when using the emulated NVMe controller with the SPDK (bug #16945)
Mouse: double click was not working with a precision touchpad (bug #14632)
Linux hosts: properly bring up host-only network interfaces with iproute (5.1.24 regression; bug #16911)
Linux hosts: provide Python 3 libraries for deb/rpm packages
Windows guests: fixed automatic logons for Vista and newer Windows guests (5.1.24 regression; bug #16921)
