Guest additions update from 4.3.30 to 5.1.22 fails on a CentOS 6.5 guest (Win7 host) with VBoxGuestAdditions.log containing:
Code: Select all
chcon: can't apply partial context to unlabeled file `/usr/lib64/VBoxGuestAdditions/mount.vboxsf'
vboxadd.sh: failed: modprobe vboxsf failed.
/opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-5.1.22/init/vboxadd: line 237: /sbin/rcvboxadd-x11: No such file or directory
vboxadd.sh: failed: modprobe vboxsf failed.

Verifying archive integrity... All good.

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 47 Jun 7 10:09 /sbin/rcvboxadd-x11 -> /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-5.1.22/init/vboxadd-x11
So I compared VBoxLinuxAdditions.run 5.1.22 with 5.1.14 and indeed there was a change regarding symlinks:
5.1.14 contains this on line 789:
Code: Select all
ln -sf "$lib_path/$PACKAGE/vboxadd-x11" /sbin/rcvboxadd-x11
I found a similar problem here in the forum but as a new user I am not yet allowed to post URLs.
But that problem was about a live cd and I don't use one...
Any thoughts on this? Seems like a bug to me.
