VirtualBox 6 and Vagrant in Fedora 29

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

If like me you use Vagrant with VirtualBox, you may see an update to
version 6 from RPM Fusion free for f29. The problem you may face later
is that f29's version of Vagrant doesn't support VirtualBox 6.

This was enough to solve it for me:

    dnf upgrade vagrant --releasever 30

Assuming semantic versioning, I think we can't get this update proper
in f29 because of the rubygem-net-ssh dependency that upgrades from
4.2.0 to 5.1.0 and would possibly be a breaking bump.

There are other ways [1] to add VirtualBox 6 support but I'm not a big
fan of tainting my RPM database, and unless you are bound to a
specific version of rubygem-net-ssh the DNF command above should be
enough.

I hope the effort started to help VirtualBox upstream its kernel modules
will allow an inclusion in Fedora soon. I don't remember when that
changed, many months ago, but there used to be a time where I could
only use Vagrant with RPMs from upstream VirtualBox so thanks to RPM
Fusion maintainers for fixing that too!
