Hi all,
First of all, I want to say that I do appreciate the work people put into Tumbleweed and I do not want to be too negative.
However :-) I would like to see missing packages like the kermel modules preventing Virtualbox from working properly to be treated as a bit more critical and updated sooner. Many people use Virtualbox and this package has been missing for more than a week now. I know you can just use the previous kernel to have it working, but fixing this sooner or, even better, preventing the release of the kernel when important kernel modules do not build properly would be nice in my opinion.
So please consider this as a question and in a constructive way as I really like Tumbleweed.
It's an interesting question whether we can catch a virtualbox issue on openQA. Does the nested VM work? For a KMP build problem, it's easy to see, though. We can set up an OBS project (e.g. Kernel:stable:KMP) building only KMPs based on the latest Kernel:stable. We have already something similar for SLE, and this has helped to catch build issues beforehand. Takashi
Kind regards, Erwin

Should really proof read stuff before sending..
