I posted this query July 9th but got no takers far as a response. Is this question in appropriate here? Is it a foolish question?
If both answers are no, I'd really like to hear from someone who either knows first hand or has a solid opinion about it. I don't want to start messing up my OS if installing qt5 and trying to run recent version of Vbox are likely to cause me grief, I might not be able to contend with. But I do need to get a newer version of Vbox installed and working. >From July 9th: From: Harry Putnam <[email protected]> Subject: Should we be able to install and run recent vbox versions Newsgroups: gmane.os.openindiana.general To: [email protected] Date: Sun, 09 Jul 2017 17:56:53 -0400 (6 days, 18 hours, 29 minutes ago) Message-ID: <[email protected]> Setup: OS: Openindian/hipster (A branch of Solaris 11) Hardware: HP xw8600 workstation: 2x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5470 @ 3.33GHz - 32 GB Ram ------- ------- ---=--- ------- ------- I've heard that recent versions of Vbox (above 5.0.X) are based on qt5 Should we be able to install recent versions of Vbox from the VBox web pages, provided we have qt5 installed? _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
