Broken link for VirtualBox
Olaf, When I tried to supply a fix for SLE15-SP2, I got the message "The diff call for Virtualization:virtualbox/virtualbox failed: bad link: could not apply patch 'project.diff'". What details I have are at https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/940571. Larry

I thought Virtualization/virtualbox remains the single place where updates are done. Virtualization:virtualbox/virtualbox was supposed to be just a convenience package for those who need it for old SUSE releases. Possible fix: osc co -u Virtualization:virtualbox/virtualbox cd $_ osc rm project.diff echo '<link project="Virtualization" cicount="add"/>' > _link osc commit --noservice -m 'restore plain _link' Olaf

I will wait and see if the fix submitted to Virtualization:virtualbox/virtualbox propagates to the other instances, and this becomes a non-issue. Thanks, Larry
