Hi Larry,
here we go..
this version of VB is tested successfully with TW and 15.0, builds
with 42.3, 15.0, 15.0 with Kernel:stable, 15.1, TW, and behaves
properly autostart-wise.
So it's good to go from my POV.
Cheers,
Pete
- separate vboxautostart.sh from vboxdrv.sh
- add vboxautostart.service
- clean up vboxdrv.sh
- fix build of vboxvideo kernel module by replacing the relative
drm include patch with an absolute include path (with sed)
- build vboxvideo kernel module for openSUSE >= 15.0
- apply fixes_for_Leap15.1.patch conditionally only
- add minimal patch fixes_for_Leap42.3.patch to build for 42.3
- fix path typo: %{_datadir}/pixmaps/virtalbox
-> %{_datadir}/pixmaps/virtualbox

User interface: fix mouse click pass-through problems in multi-screen virtual machines (6.0.6 regression, bug #18567)
Graphics: fixed a crash when powering off a VM without graphics controller (bug #18570)
API: partial fix for dealing with VM config conflicting with other VMs related to medium UUIDs, now correctly flags VM as inaccessible (bug #17908)
Linux hosts: fix kernel module build breakage in non-default build set-ups (bug #18620, thank you Ambroz Bizjak)
Linux hosts: fix kernel module build breakage in debug build set-ups (bug #18621, thank you Ambroz Bizjak)
Windows guests: notice file size increases in shared folders which were missed in certain cases
Linux guests: make shared folders work with Linux 3.16.35
Linux guests: fix incorrectly read-only shared folders (bug #18345)
- Modify "fixes_for_qt13.1" for i586 builds qith Qt 5.13
- Limit all architectures to a maxium of 2 jobs. Without this restriction, 32-bit builds run
out of memory, and 64-bit builds get strange crashes.
- LTO builds still failing. Reset flag to nil.
- Changed the way that the spec file limits the 32-bit builds to 2 threads. boo#1133492.
If enough memory were allocated so that the full number of workers were allowed, the job would never be scheduled.

OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/Virtualization/virtualbox?expand=0&rev=488
- Updated file "Fixes_for_Leap15.1.patch" to handle one addition problem due to backporting of kernel APIa.
Remove "BuildRequires: quilt" - that package is not needed.

Hi Larry,
here's is my current state of VB affairs. It's more a RFC, but it
contains everything to build that biest for the most prominent
distributions.
The new patch virtualbox-fix-ui-background-color.patch is an attempt
to deuglify the UI with certain color schemes.
Again, RFC stuff for you to look at.
Thanks,
Pete
- adjust patch virtualbox-fix-ui-background-color.patch to really
fix the background color messing...
- add patch to stop UI messing with Highlight Color for background
- apply fixes_for_qt5.13.patch for Qt versions >= 5.13.0 only
- Add setBadness('permissions-unauthorized-file',333) to rpmlintrc
- Remove suid attributes from all files
- add libgsoap version dependency >= 2.8.50 (recv_maxlength)
- Fix virtualbox wrapper script virtualbox-wrapper.sh to check
60-vboxdrv.rules in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d, not /etc/udev/rules.d
Logic is still flawed, until it doesn't take both locations into
account
- Add custom /etc/permission.d/virtualbox{,.paranoid} definitions
- Add compatibility symlink to keep old desktop links functional

1. Sustituted /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/ => %python3_sitelib
2. Reverted change that eliminated use of %{_tmppath}/SITE_FILES for Python 3.6
3. As vboxapisetup.py in Python 3.7 no longer accepts the --record-rpm switch,
SITE_FILES does not exist, and the individual files must still be listed.

Change kernel module code to build against the API changes in kernel 4.20 - This change
adds file "fixes_for_4.20".
- 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.

Apple hosts: make kernel driver load with Mac OS Mojave pre-release (bug #17805).
Linux guests: made vboxvideo driver build with kernel 4.17 (bug #17801) and with pre-3.14 and EL 7.1 kernels (bug #17771)
