How is it "completely broken" when it doesn't work on the development version of one of them? As I said for Debian guests there exists the virtualbox-guest-x11 package as Debian-native way to install guest additions. > I have bumped this back up to grave.

Can we please not play the severity game? kthx Besides, since you are using Windows as the host you are not even using this package. The iso is something you have on the host and pass through to the guest. Felix -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

We have no way of changing them beyond what upstream provides. Please uninstall them and instead install the virtualbox-guest-x11 Debian package. It is built from source against the current Xorg server. Cheers, Felix -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Package: virtualbox-guest-x11 Version: 4.3.14-dfsg-1 Severity: grave I apologize, I'm not sure exactly which package this should be filed against, but I'm pretty sure this is the correct one. I am on a Windows 8.1 host running Debian jessie. I updated xorg-xserver etc. to the current version in testing, 1.16.0-1. However, I am no longer able to use the X11-related guest utilities. The relevant output from VBoxLinuxAdditions.run in the guest additions ISO: Installing the Window System drivers Warning: unknown version of the X Window System installed. Not installing X Window System drivers. Looking at the code, the issue is obvious. It is searching for /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-4.3.14/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions/vboxvideo_drv_116.so, which does not exist. This support needs to be added. I'm sure that's easier said than done, and is probably an upstream problem. Meanwhile, however, this package needs to change its xorg-xserver-core dependency, adding (<< 1.16.0). -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages virtualbox-guest-x11 depends on: ii dpkg 1.17.10 ii libc6 2.19-7 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-2 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-1 ii libxdamage11:1.1.4-2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.2-1 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0.1-2 ii libxmu62:1.1.2-1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.2-1 ii libxt6 1:1.1.4-1 ii virtualbox-guest-utils 4.3.14-dfsg-1 ii xserver-xorg-core [xorg-video-abi-18] 2:1.16.0-1 virtualbox-guest-x11 recommends no packages. virtualbox-guest-x11 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
