I had a related problem - I could not see *any* new versions of "virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-xx" after "virtualbox-ose- modules-2.6.24-16", even though I could see all of the kernel images from "linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic" to "linux-image-2.6.24-24-generic".
Traced my issue to the default apt "sources.list" file from Hardy, which had the following lines: deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-updates main restricted deb-src http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-updates main restricted However, the virtualbox-ose-modules packages are in the "universe" repository, so the new packages in "hardy-updates" were not being downloaded by 'apt-get update'. Adding the following lines to sources.list fixed the problem. deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-updates universe multiverse deb-src http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-updates universe multiverse The meta-package "virtualbox-ose-modules-generic" now functions as expected, and Virtualbox works with the "virtualbox-ose- modules-2.6.24-24" package installed. -- virtualbox-ose-modules broken AGAIN https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
