The link that 6.0.14 provides for updating generates a 404 error. (The non-existent target is: https://download.virtualbox.org/virtual ... 60-OSX.dmg -- note the "6.0.15" in the filename.)
The file, VirtualBox-6.0.16-135674-OSX.dmg, that is delivered by the 6.0.16 "OS X hosts" link on the Old Builds page contains an installer that installs 6.0.15.
6.0.14 bad update link; 6.0.16 on Old Builds installs 6.0.15
Re: 6.0.14 bad update link; 6.0.16 on Old Builds installs 6.0.15
Is the version string "6.0.15" when downloading the announced 6.0.16 only a glitch in the version string or is it indeed a different code base not having (all) fixes and changes supposed to be in 6.0.16?
Asking because I continue to have VM crashes on a MacOS 10.14.6 (18G2022) host with Linux guest while the Changelog for 6.0.16 says
macOS host: Fix VM crashes (most visible on macOS Catalina)
Is there a timeline to fix the download (Ticket #19236)?
Thanks,

Alas, I cannot answer those questions. I note that the 6.0.15 version string is in the VirtualBox.app that the misnamed installer installs. Several threads have been started on this issue. The longest one at the moment seems to be No 6.0.16 installer.mucuser wrote:Is the version string "6.0.15" when downloading the announced 6.0.16 only a glitch in the version string or is it indeed a different code base not having (all) fixes and changes supposed to be in 6.0.16?
