Using module-assistant auto-install isn't working with the current virtualbox-ose-source package.
Auto-install is expecting to find the virtualbox sources under /usr/src and doesn't, so fails. The file list reveals that the sources are not being placed where auto-install expects them: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/all/virtualbox-ose-source/filelist Here is the output I get: # *** start output Updated infos about 1 packages Getting source for kernel version: 2.6.27-9-generic Kernel headers available in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.27-9-generic Creating symlink... apt-get install build-essential Reading package lists...

Done! unpack The source tarball could not be found! Package virtualbox-ose-source not installed? Running "m-a -f get virtualbox-ose-source" may help.

I selected "Continue" in this case. Something seems wrong here. Is there a safe workaround if a proper fix is not simple? -- virtualbox-ose-modules broken AGAIN https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
