Virtualbox 6.0 fails to compile on Fedora Rawhide kernel 5.0

Post by mfelker »

Virtualbox 6.0 fails to compile on Fedora 30 (Rawhide) with kernel 5.0.0-0.rc1.git3.2.fc30.x86_64, which is the latest. Interesting it works great using kernel 4.21.0-0.rc0.git1.1.fc30.x86_6 (kernel 4.21 became 5.0 upon Linus's decree). Has anybody else got Virtualbox 6.0 to compile on kernel 5.0?

A zip of vbox-setup.log is attached for developers.

Looks like there is a patch for the issue you are seeing with kernel 5.0 in this mailing list post.
Beginning is easy – Continuing is hard.
