Package: virtualbox
Version: 5.2.10-dfsg-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

My workflow with virtualbox heavily relies on being able to save snapshots of
running machines and then restore them on demand (much faster than booting!).

Everything worked happily with 5.2.8-dfsg-10 (and 5.1.30-dfsg-1~bpo9+1).
However since I upgraded VirtualBox to 5.2.10-dfsg-5 (resp.
5.2.10-dfsg-2~bpo9+2) restoring live snapshots stopped working.

When I restore such a snapshot, i see a progress bar counting up to 100%, and
once it has reached 100% i get "The VM session was aborted. Error Code
NS_ERROR_FAILURE 0x80004005)" and the machine goes to "cancelled" state.

Restoring a snapshot of a powered-off machine works fine, it's just the restore
of a live-snapshot that fails.

Downgrading to 5.2.8-dfsg-10 makes live-snapshots work again.
(at least for live-snapshots created with the same version (5.2.8-dfsg-10);
live-snapshots created with 5.2.10 fail to import into 5.2.8 with some version
error.)

cheers,
