of multiple virtual machines without re-uploading. Also added option to export a VM to the cloud using the more efficient
variant "paravirtialized", and to specify free-form tags for cloud images
- Virtualization core: Support for nested hardware-virtualization on Intel CPUs (starting with 5th generation Core i,
codename Broadwell), so far tested only with guest running VirtualBox
- Graphics: New style 3D support (with VBoxSVGA and VMSVGA) remains, old style 3D support (with VBoxVGA) has been completely removed
- Shared Clipboard: Implemented experimental support for file transfers (Windows hosts/guests only at the moment).
Needs to be enabled via VBoxManage (disabled by default). In addition, the following items were fixed and/or added:
In addition, the following items were fixed and/or added:
- Virtualization core: Drop recompiler, i.e. running VMs now needs a CPU supporting hardware virtualization
- Runtime: Works now on hosts with many CPUs (limit now 1024)
- Appliance and Cloud Import: Add field for defining firmware type (not part of OVF spec and thus manual in the Appliance case,
for OCI it is automatically taken from the instance information)
- GUI: Improved the VISO creation and file manager dialogs
- GUI: Virtual machine list of VirtualBox Manager was improved. Machine groups are now more obvious visually and VM
search functionality has been improved. Global Tools element can now be pinned in place, to avoid scrolling it with rest of machine list
- GUI: Virtual machine details pane is now extended with embedded editors for selected VM attributes, allowing user to edit them
on-the-fly byi clicking corresponding hyper-links without opening VM settings dialog
- GUI: Details pane provides more complete information
- GUI: Internal medium enumeration routines were optimized to reduce the load and optimize the performance in cases when
user have lots of media registered. Also, we again allowed to add existing media (and create new) via Virtual Media Manager

- API: Reduce the amount of leftovers from Move VM function
- Shared Clipboard: Implemented experimental support for file transfers for Linux hosts on Windows guests (disabled by default)
- SMBIOS: Store system UUID in little endian format which is the default for new VMs, while existing VMs stick to the old VirtualBox
behavior of storing them in big endian format for backwards compatibility to avoid breaking the activation status of Windows VMs
- VBoxSDL frontend: Fixed running on Windows hosts
- Linux host: Improve vboxweb systemd service dependency information
- Linux host: Drop PCI passthrough, the current code is too incomplete (cannot handle PCIe devices at all), i.e. not useful enough

- The VirtualBox packages for both Tumbleweed and Leap 15.1 are now derived from the sources in Factory;
however, the underlying kernels are very different in that vboxvideo.ko is built-into the TW kernel,
thus the package did not try to build that module. The result is that Leap 15.1 guests have only 640x480
resolution (boo#1132439). These changes conditionally turn building of the kernel module back on. As TW
does not need the module, it is only built for Leap 15.1.

been modified to check the permissions and pop up a warning describing the problem and
showing the command needed to fix the problem. File "vbox-suid-warning.diff" is added.

/usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSharedCrOpenGL.so from package virtualbox to virtualbox-qt. With this change, package virtualbox no longer needs libX11.
- Version bump to 5.1.30 (released 2017-10-16 by Oracle)
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)

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Oct 3 13:02:28 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Make additional change specified in bsc#1060072. Moving VBoxSDL and VBoxSDL.so from package
virtualbox to virtualbox-qt removes an additional need to load the libqt* binaries on a
text-only installation running headless VMs.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 25 20:15:56 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- 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.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 10 18:22:25 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Fix several problems with the startup scripts. The SysV form is no longer used for most packages as proper systemd
service files have been created. These fixes address bsc#1037291, #1043532, and #1045871.
- Increase reserved disk space from 4 to 5 GB. This change was suddested as a fix for the 32-bit failures.

With these fixes, TW guests start correctly. In addition, the /sbin/vboxconfig (for hosts) and the
/sbin/vboxguestconfig (for guests) work correctly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jun 21 16:46:48 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Now that kernel:HEAD:standard has changed to version 4.12.0-rcX, the VB drivers need some changes for new API's.
File "vbox_fix_for_kernel_4.12.patch" is added.
The added installation of "net-tools-deprecated" broke builds for Leap 42.3. That change is now conditional on building for Factory.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jun 10 13:19:05 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Add installation of package "net-tools-deprecated" as requested in boo#1027742.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jun 8 17:37:35 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Revise warning screen concerning USB passthru - fixes bnc#1041137.
USB passthru opens a security hole, yet it is so valuable that many users want the feature, thus it is our default.
Previously, a user needed to edit a udev rule to disable passthru. The bad part was that an update of VB changed the
rule back to allow passthru without any notification. These changes modify the popup to allow the user to accept or decline
passthru. If the user declines, then the root password is requested and the udev rule is modified. As these modifications will be
lost with the next VB update, the inode of the udev rule is kept. If the user has previously declined and the inode has changed,
the popup will show the next time VB is started. File "fix_usb_rules.sh" is added.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun May 21 13:28:15 UTC 2017 - hpj@urpla.net
- add %dir /usr/share/licenses to new vnc package
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May 17 20:33:08 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Made changes to build with gcc 7.x. This adds new file "vbox_fix_for_gcc7.patch".
Changed the building of VBoxVNC to remove the hack used earlier.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May 10 17:39:57 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Make a number of changes:
* Add VBoxVNC as a proper external pack rather than just make the so available (bnc #1037033). Thanks to Michal Nowak for most of this effort.
One hack was required to work around a bug in "VBoxManage extpack install" whereby the --accept-license option failed to work.
* Improve startup of VirtualBox through use of systemd service files:
a. Beginning with Oracle version 5.0.8, the command used to build the kernel modules outside of the RPM packaging
code changed; however, the openSUSE version did not implement the new method. That new code is now implemented.
b. In Tumbleweed, the SysV init scripts to systemd service files stopped working. Part of the new code also checks
to see if the kernel modules are loaded. If not, new script files are called to include the necessary packages
and build the necessary modules.
c. The hooks are in place to remove the sysv init files and do the complete conversion to systemd. This step will
be done at a later time.
* New files are "vboxconfig.sh", "vboxguestconfig.sh", "vboxdrv.service", and "vboxadd-service.service".
* New sub-packages virtualbox-guest-source and virtualbox-vnc are produced.
* Some typos in virtualbox.spec are fixed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu May 4 17:59:45 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Add libelf-devel to build. Fixes bnc #1037511.

This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
VMM: fixed VERR_IEM_INSTR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED Guru Meditation under certain conditions (5.1 regression; mostly Mac OS X hosts; bugs #15693, #15801, #16274, #16569, #16663)
VMM: fixed software virtualization on Solaris hosts (5.1.20 regression)
Storage: fixed a potential hang under rare circumstances (bug #16677)
Storage: fixed a potential crash under rare circumstances (asynchronous I/O disabled or during maintenance file operations like merging snapshots)
Linux hosts: make the ALSA backend work again as well as loading the GL libraries on certain hosts (5.1.20 regression; bugs #16667, #16693)
Linux Additions: fixed mount.vboxsf symlink problem (5.1.20 regression; bug #16670)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Apr 29 04:38:33 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- VirtualBox has always been started by systemd utilizing the old-style scripts in /etc/init.d.
These should be converted to the service files native to systemd. This issue has been forced
as a recent update to Tumbleweed broke the startup of VB for both TW hosts and guests. This
change starts the conversion to native systemd files. The original scripts are still used; however,
service files are used to start and stop the VB components. In a later change, all action will
be accomplished using systemd service files.
Two new files named "vboxdrv.service" and "vboxadd-service.service" are added.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tue Feb 28 21:06:30 UTC 2017 - dimstar@opensuse.org
- Do not proivde libGL.so.1 and libEGL.so.1 symbols into the rpm
database.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Feb 26 20:17:02 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- The fix for 3D acceleration only works for Gmome desktops. KDE desktops fail. Accordingly,
3D acceleration must still be disabled "out-of-the-box". File /etc/init.d/vboxadd contains
comments on the modifications needed to turn 3D acceleration on, thus Gnome users may turn
it on selectively.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb 24 03:34:35 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Fix 3D acceleration as reported in bsc #1024934. The steps needed are as follows:
- Remove file "vbox_prevent_wrong_SONAME.patch" - the original SONAME values are needed for
libGL.so.1 and libEGL.so.1 to be replaced by VBoxOGL.so and VBoxEGL.so, respectively.
- Package VBoxEGL.so
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 23 12:37:09 CET 2017 - kukuk@suse.de
- Require insserv and fillup by the packages who call it in the
pre/post install sections
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 2 15:30:05 UTC 2017 - adam.majer@suse.de
- use individual libboost-*-devel packages instead of boost-devel

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jan 14 02:14:27 UTC 2017 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- The printing of the warning about the insecurity in USB passthru had been lost. As most people are likely to want that feature,
the logic has been inverted. Now, the required udev commands to allow passthru are included. The first time that VB is started,
the user will get a screen that points to the bug entry discussing the problem and states what they should do to block the
insecure usage. In any case, that screen will only be printed once. File "virtualbox-60-vboxdrv.rules" has been added
These changes address the issues in bnc #1018340.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Dec 21 03:19:26 UTC 2016 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 5 22:34:34 UTC 2016 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- I now have the necessary preprocessor symbol to modify the source depending on whether the server is 1.19.0 or greater.
It is no longer necessary to detect the server version in the spec file, thus the solution is cleaner.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 5 17:03:34 UTC 2016 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Leap 42.2 still has server v. 1.18.3, thus the test failed. The test has been changed to look at only the 1.xx part of the version.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Dec 4 16:59:29 UTC 2016 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Add patch file "Fix_for_server_1.19.patch" to support xorg-x11-server v. 1.19.0.
The spec file now interrogates the rpm for the server and conditionally applies the patch, thus both versions build OK.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 30 16:45:43 UTC 2016 - asn@cryptomilk.org
- Add patch file "vbox_hidpi_support.patch" to add support for HiDPI in the

Tue Oct 18 14:43:04 UTC 2016 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Requesting 14000 MB is too much. Reduce the request to 12000 MB.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 13 19:15:03 UTC 2016 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Some builds still run out of memory and fail. Increase to 14000 MB.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 13 16:11:14 UTC 2016 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Builds keep running out of memory when building the web server part of the package.
To help the memory pressure, I have forced make to run with "-j2", rather than use
the number of processors. Such a change will slow the build, but will result in a
higher rate of success.

- Modify Guest Additions so that openSUSE build works with new Oracle code. The following changes have been made:
Added Oracle patch to bring code to r106140 commit.
Moved VB guest modules to /lib/modules/.../misc/. This layout matches that of the Oracle Guest Additions ISO.

USB: better identification of certain USB devices
NAT: support TCP in DNS proxy (bug #14736)
NAT Network: fixed sporadic crashes on Windows hosts (bug #13899)
API: when creating differencing images (e.g. as part of a snapshot or cloning a VM) use the same disk image variant as the parent image if possible, which means that e.g. a diff image for a VMDK image split into 2 GB files will also be split (bug #14764)
API: event queue handling fixes preventing loss of certain events at runtime (e.g. new webcam attached), particularly important on Mac OS X hosts

- Fixed typo in QMessageBox text in new popup window.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Nov 6 06:57:16 UTC 2015 - Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net
- Add logic to virtualbox-wrapper.sh to test if /etc/udev/rules.d/60-vboxdrv.rules exists. If not, a screen stating
that passthru of USB devices is a security hole, and it refers the user to bnc#664520 for an explanation.
It also explains the process for enabling USB passthru if the user really wants it. When the user closes
the popup window, a dummy version of /etc/udev/rules.d/60-vboxdrv.rules is created, which prevents this
window from being displayed every time VirtualBox is started.
- Fixes boo#953018.

- Install and enable the vboxadd-service init script, to make
auto-mounting of shared folders and time synchronization work
- Install VBoxService to /usr/sbin/ instead of /usr/bin/ so that
vboxadd-service can find it, it cannot be run as user anyway
- Create the /media folder with appropriate permissions on
distributions higher than 13.1, it doesn't exist any more and the
one that VBoxService creates automatically cannot be accessed by
normal users
