Hi,
This is a Fedora rawhide system and has had VBox running on earlier kernels. I
finally have a running kernel (USB support problems) and am trying to get VBox
to install. I'm seeing the usual msgs from vboxconfig about the kernel source
and have run the recommended command "make oldconfig && make prepare" with the
following results:
/usr/src/kernels/4.12.0-0.rc1.git1.1.fc27.x86_64# make oldconfig && make prepare
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
HOSTCC scripts/basic/bin2c
HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o
HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o
HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/conf
scripts/kconfig/conf --oldconfig Kconfig
#
# configuration written to .config

libelf-devel or elfutils-libelf-devel"

The above mentioned packages do NOT exist.
I have run the "latest" VBox test build (Linux 64bit) but it fails too and
suggests two packages which do not exist.
I don't know what to do at this point in time except to try an older version.
Any thoughts or suggestions/hints/tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help,
George...
