- Pseudo version bump to 6.1.13, which is NOT an Oracle release.
Update VB sources to run under kernel 5.8.0+ with no modifications to the
kernel. These sources are derived from r85883 of the Oracle svn repository.
For operations with USB{2,3}, the extension pack for revision 140056 must
be installed. Once Oracle releases 6.1.14, then the extension pack and
VB itself will have the same revision number.
File "fixes_for_5.8.patch" is removed as that part was fixed upstream.
Fixes boo#1175201.

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
