[Bug 1878553] Re: Ubuntu could not install Virtualbox Guest addons
Copying in a relevant comment from Adam Conrad in the original bug report: This isn't a bug in software-properties. What I can't decide is if it's a bug in virtualbox-guest* or ubuntu-drivers-common. Basically, here's what's happening: 1) The virtualbox-guest* packages have a modalias for the "guest services", but not the VGA controller. 2) We pulled the DKMS drivers into the kernel. 3) The above situation confuses ubuntu-drivers-common, which really wants to install vbox-dkms, but we have it builtin. 4) Nothing wants to install vbox-x11, which we actually want. So, the lack of modaliases on vbox-x11 is definitely a vbox bug, and the dependencies are also a bit strong between vbox packages (we should drop some recommends to suggests, to stop trying to forcefully install compilers to get an X driver). That said, we might also want to quirk the ubuntu-drivers-common detection a bit to either hide vbox-dkms altogether, or actually let us use it if it's a potential upgrade. Currently, neither of these options is in play, and we see it, but it's greyed out, which is amazingly confusing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878553 Title: Ubuntu could not install Virtualbox Guest addons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-drivers-common/+bug/1878553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

As suggested in the description, this is really the same issue as bug #1434579. Since that old bug report was tracking resolved problems in other components, instead of making this one a duplicate I'll split off the ubuntu-drivers-common task here. ** Package changed: software-properties (Ubuntu Groovy) => ubuntu- drivers-common (Ubuntu Groovy) ** Changed in: ubuntu-drivers-common (Ubuntu Groovy) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878553 Title: Ubuntu could not install Virtualbox Guest addons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-drivers-common/+bug/1878553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1878553] Re: Ubuntu could not install Virtualbox Guest addons
Manual mode is selected (and consequently other options are greyed out) because the UbuntuDrivers module reports manual_install=True for the device. Diving into the ubuntu-drivers-common code, it invokes "modinfo vboxguest" and if the return value is 0, it considers the module to be manually installed. ubuntu@groovyvm:~$ modinfo vboxguest filename: /lib/modules/5.4.0-28-generic/kernel/virtualbox-guest/vboxguest.ko version:6.1.6_Ubuntu r137129 license:GPL description:Oracle VM VirtualBox Guest Additions for Linux Module author: Oracle Corporation srcversion: 2A221C27F4AB41327E708B4 alias: pci:v80EEdCAFEsvsdbc*sc*i* depends: retpoline: Y name: vboxguest vermagic: 5.4.0-28-generic SMP mod_unload sig_id: PKCS#7 signer: Build time autogenerated kernel key sig_key:42:A8:A9:98:8B:E6:F1:71:2C:AF:A3:32:4E:72:D5:45:3C:41:3F:7A sig_hashalgo: sha512 signature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ou received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1878553 Title: Ubuntu could not install Virtualbox Guest addons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/1878553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can reliably observe the problem in a groovy VM. However, contrary to what Séb is observing, "sudo ubuntu-drivers install" raises an error: ubuntu@groovyvm:~$ LANG=C sudo ubuntu-drivers install Reading package lists...
