Currently virtualbox drivers crash with 4.7 kernel; but when I booted 4.6 I found that kernel modules are gone. Which is understandable as virtualbox was updated in the meantime.
Was multiversion support for KMPs ever considered? This cannot be really done right now as far as I understand because we want to preserve KMP for different kernel versions but cannot

Right now multiversion is only partially usable for anyone who needs extra kernel modules.
KMPs can be multiversion, yes. e.g. $ rpm -q --provides xtables-addons-kmp-desktop-2.6_k3.16.7_35-17.1.x86_64 multiversion(kernel) xtables-addons-kmp = 2.6 xtables-addons-kmp = 2.6_k3.16.7_35 xtables-addons-kmp-desktop = 2.6_k3.16.7_35-17.1 xtables-addons-kmp-desktop(x86-64) = 2.6_k3.16.7_35-17.1 $ The KMP macro should probably do it itself. Might be that the KMP %kernel_module_package macro is not correctly used in virtualbox.spec Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
