[SOLVED] Error from sbopkg while installing virtualbox kernel module. Tracking -current.

amikoyan · 02-10-2022, 01:05 PM

I have set my slackpkg mirrors to -current and ran slackpkg update/install-new/upgrade-all successfully.

I wish to use sbopkg to update the virtualbox kernel module and have run into this error message:

Code:

Any advice on how to complete the virtualbox kernel upgrade?

Well first thing I noticed is that it looks like you're trying to build 6.1.22. The latest virtualbox for slackware 15.0/-current is 6.1.32. the maintainer ppr:kut has them hosted on his personal server and they are available on the master branch of SBo.

ppr:kut server
https://repo.liwjatan.org/pprkut/current/x86_64/ (Binaries)
https://repo.liwjatan.org/pprkut/current/source/ (Sources slackbuilds)

SBo master branch
https://git.slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/

Try these packages. I use them and they build fine on 15.0, and his precompiled binaries work also if you don't want to compile.

To make sbopkg work with the master branch of SBo use Willy's test sbopkg build here. After install edit /etc/sbopkg/sbopkg.conf and change the repo version from 15.0 to master.

You are absolutely correct. Running sync on sbopkg fixed this.

I will also look into the links you posted this weekend.

Thank you
