Hi Dirk, first, you can always downgrade virtualbox, and you have plenty of google links teaching you how to cope with that. I can't reproduce the problem, and I'm trying together with upstream my best to fix it. For sure your bug report started with "virtualbox: DSA-3359-1 causes VBoxClient to send error message "The VirtualBox kernel service is not running" and to break off." and no bug content, so you didn't gave me enough stuff to work on. anyway, I have some questions for you, while I'm trying hardly to reproduce the problem (I did install and upgrade on a clean jessie without *any* issue in restarting VMs) I had similar reports in ubuntu, and they were caused by people running the virtualbox install from Oracle website (not the deb file, because we conflict with them) and then not completely purging virtualbox prior to install the Debian package. So if you really care about your VM you need to give us more information such as: 1) did you have a clean system? 2) can you please provide english logs? 3) can you please try to purge virtualbox (maybe from synaptic) and install it again? in the last case I would like to see the full install log, and for sure all the log files mentioned in a possible failure. cheers, Gianfranco
Re: Bug#798979: [SECURITY] [DSA 3359-1] virtualbox security update
BTW I'm mostly sure as we specified in a previous email, this problem is not related to the security DSA, but with a race condition in an upgrade path handled by apt. (probably always here, but with systemd it might be occurring more frequently). (it might have happened with a one-line patch, or even with a no change rebuild) A solution might be to do a "systemctl stop virtualbox" and check that no "VBoxSVC" is running. (and sorry for the bad experience you had) cheers, Gianfranco

Re: Bug#798979: [SECURITY] [DSA 3359-1] virtualbox security update
Adding the other bug, similar to it, against Unstable. As mentioned earlier, it does look like we need to add a tighter dependency in between the dkms/source package and the main virtualbox package. I just made the changes, built, and verified locally. And it seems to be in line with my root cause. Ofcourse, before I'd like we push it to Unstable first (and close 798527), and then tackle the other stable releases. And any additional testing is going to help now. Please see console log below. With the tighter dependency now, virtualbox does not get picked until its {Pre}Dependency, i.e. virtualbox-dkms is properly installed. I have pushed the changes to the git repo, for the master branch. @Gianfranco: I'm still on the sloppy internet network, so if you have the bandwidth, please feel free to prepare the new upload. rrs@chutzpah:/var/tmp/vbox$ apt-cache policy virtualbox virtualbox-dkms virtualbox: Installed: 5.0.4-dfsg-2 Candidate: 5.0.4-dfsg-2 Version table: 5.0.4-dfsg-3 0 500 file:/var/tmp/vbox/ Packages *** 5.0.4-dfsg-2 0 990 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing/contrib amd64 Packages 500 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable/contrib amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status virtualbox-dkms: Installed: 5.0.4-dfsg-2 Candidate: 5.0.4-dfsg-2 Version table: 5.0.4-dfsg-3 0 500 file:/var/tmp/vbox/ Packages *** 5.0.4-dfsg-2 0 990 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing/contrib amd64 Packages 500 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ unstable/contrib amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 22:56 ♒♒♒ ☺ rrs@chutzpah:/var/tmp/vbox$ sudo aptitude install virtualbox=5.0.4-dfsg -3 virtualbox-dkms=5.0.4-dfsg-3 virtualbox-qt=5.0.4-dfsg-3 The following packages will be upgraded: virtualbox virtualbox-dkms virtualbox-qt 3 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 6 not upgraded.
