Package: virtualbox Version: 5.1.24-dfsg-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Since (one of) the last updates, virtualbox fails to set the host-only interfaces vboxnet0 and vboxnet1 to "up". It configures the correct IP to the interfaces, but does not do "ifconfig vboxnet0 up" or "ip link set vboxnet0 up". aurora64:~# ip addr show dev vboxnet1 47: vboxnet1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether 0a:00:27:00:00:01 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.152.1/24 scope global vboxnet1 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever Because of this communication to a running virtual machine fails. After a manual "ip link set vboxnet1 up" it works fine.
