G'day all,

About 6 months ago, the FreeBSD port of VirtualBox was upgraded from version 5.0.26 to 5.1.4. The new version didn't work with USB devices whereas the old one did. I raised PR https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212845 at the time. Since then, the port has followed the releases of VirtualBox up to 5.1.14 as of last week (thanks, jkim). However, the same USB problem has existed for all that time.

I'm having a go at trying to fix it. But I know almost nothing about the VirtualBox source code. So, I'd like some help please. Does anybody here have any experience with this. Or any clues as to where I should start looking.

At the moment I'm just trying to do diffs between the old and new versions, but it's a fairly daunting task. I'm also going to try building versions 5.0.32 and 5.1.0 (which never had FreeBSD ports) to see whether the breakage was in between them (I presume that it was).

Thanks for any help,

    Graham
