Public bug reported: Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose
I am electing that the version of virtualbox used in Karmic is moved to 2.2.4 at least. There are many serious bug fixes including this one from VirtualBox user FAQ: VBoxManage modifyhd --compact crashes or corrupts .the vdi image There is a bug in VirtualBox 2.2.2 which is fixed in later releases. Don't use this command with release 2.2.2 or your .vdi image might get corrupted! The info can be found here: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/User_FAQ I know that I have used that command on occasion. It would be a shame to have a dozen or more poor souls come screaming that we negligently included a version of VirtualBox that is known to corrupt images while compacting. ** Affects: virtualbox-ose (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- VBoxManage modifyhd --compact corrupts .the vdi image https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386455 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
