Package: vagrant
Version: 1:1.7.4
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
The current version of Virtualbox is not compatible with Vagrant. I get
this:
The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine
'default' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The
reason is shown below:
Vagrant has detected that you have a version of VirtualBox
installed
that is not supported. Please install one of the supported
versions
listed below to use Vagrant:
4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I tried:
sudo apt-get purge virtualbox-dkms ; sudo apt-get install
virtualbox-dkms
as well as,
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
to make sure I had the kernel headers ... I did.
In the end I just got the deb package from upstream (version 1.7.4).
So I suppose this bug is in two parts a wishlist item and compatiblilty
issue.
Please can you upgrade to the latest vagrant package.
Kind Regards
Brent Clark
