Package: virtualbox-ose Version: 2.1.0-dfsg-2 Severity: normal I used to have "vbox0" and "vbox1" tun/tap interfaces created by the mere existance of such entries thanks to the help of /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/virtualbox-ose.
That script still exists but /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxTunctl has disappeared now that VirtualBox relies on the new vboxnetflt module to directly inject data on a real network and that we don't need anymore a bridge between the real card and the virtual interfaces. And without that /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxTunctl, the scripts are no-ops. Please drop the useless scripts /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/virtualbox-ose and /etc/network/if-post-down.d/virtualbox-ose. Please also document this somewhere, I believe that a NEWS.Debian entry would be welcome given that many people have customized their network setup for virtualbox and now it's not needed any more. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.27-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages virtualbox-ose depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcap2 2.11-2 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libgcc1 1:4.3.2-2 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libidl0 0.8.11-0.1 library for parsing CORBA IDL file ii libqt4-network 4.4.3-2 Qt 4 network module ii libqtcore4 4.4.3-2 Qt 4 core module ii libqtgui4 4.4.3-2 Qt 4 GUI module ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.13-4 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libstdc++6 4.3.2-2 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.9-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxml2 2.6.32.dfsg-5 GNOME XML library ii libxslt1.1 1.1.24-2 XSLT processing library - runtime ii libxt6 1:1.0.5-3 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii python 2.5.2-3 An interactive high-level object-o ii python2.5 2.5.2-15 An interactive high-level object-o Versions of packages virtualbox-ose recommends: ii 2.6.26+1.6.6-dfsg-6 PC virtualization solution for Lin ii 2.6.26+1.6.6-dfsg-6 PC virtualization solution for Lin ii 2.0.6-dfsg-1+2.6.27-1~exper VirtualBox modules for Linux (kern ii 2.1.0-dfsg-2+2.6.27-1~exper VirtualBox modules for Linux (kern Versions of packages virtualbox-ose suggests: ii bridge-utils 1.4-5 Utilities for configuring the Linu ii virtualbox-ose-source 2.1.0-dfsg-2 x86 virtualization solution - kern -- debconf information: virtualbox-ose/upstream_version_change: false -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
