Hello,

I am running openSUSE 13.2 with 

virtualbox-5.0.20-48.5.x86_64 (openSUSE 13.2 Updates)
libvirt-1.2.9-31.1.x86_64

When I try to use virsh to connect to virtualbox I see the following:

# virsh -c vbox:///session
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: internal error: unable to initialize VirtualBox driver API

The reason is that initially virtualbox 4 has been supplied with 13.2 and
libvirt 1.2.9 only supports vbox 4.3 API
In other words, virtualbox 5.0.20 update is inconsistent with provided libvirt.

Commit d0bef6433408745e4fffb9f16a146cbde9510f3b ("Add support for VirtualBox
5") has to be backported to libvirt 1.2.9
