He means there is "no repo" dedicated to F21. So, the repo file.... [virtualbox] name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch - VirtualBox baseurl=http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/fedora/$releasever/$basearch enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc Doesn't find vbox due to $releasever=21 and that directory doesn't exist. Yes, one can simply download and install the most recent rpm which is VirtualBox-4.3-4.3.20_96996_fedora18-1 -- If you can't laugh at yourself, others will gladly oblige. -- users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
