Unfortunately, so far the post fell through the cracks... so for possible integration into packages provided by the illumos distributions (e.g. to help the work done by Thomas Gouverneur to turn SVR releases into IPS, or to support proper GPL-source builds of VirtualBox), I'd like to repost these fixes here too. Feel free to build on them, to make VB updates hiccup-less ;) In my practice, it sufficed to "pkgtrans" the Oracle VB package into a directory, patch the script "vboxconfig.sh" provided in the installation image, update the "pkgmap" with new values for size and checksum of the changed file, (run "pkgrm" to remove an obsoleted installation) and "pkgadd" to install the package from the directory. --- The reposted part: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.virtualbox.devel/7390 Date: 2015-03-09 15:09:25 GMT Hello all, I submit a patch which should simplify installation of modern VirtualBox on some non-Oracle derivate distributions of Solaris which are known to host VirtualBox just fine. Most of the patch deals with "proper" detection of major and minor OS version numbers on those distributions. Also there is now a touchable filename to enforce installation of USB filters and corresponding UNIX group accounts, as a workaround for further distros not detected as supported by even new code. I submit this patch under the terms of MIT license. This was last tested with VirtualBox 4.3.24 and OpenIndiana Hipster and OmniOS Bloody, all updated today to the most current states available. Note this was not yet tested in practice with SXCE although snippets were developed that should work there. I don't expect there are many of those installations left beside my closet, but those are all pleased with old VBox versions for now... ain't broke, you know ;) Hope this helps, // Jim Klimov > ___ > OmniOS-discuss mailing list > omnios-disc...@lists.omniti.com > http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss -- ++ |
