#32764 closed defect

virtualbox version modification throwing off downstream software — at Version 3

Reported by: bm55b@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.0.3
Keywords: Cc:
Port: virtualbox

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

$ VBoxManage --version
4.1.8_MacPortsr75467

I think this causes vagrant to fail

https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/619

Why 4.1.8_MacPortsr75467? Why not 4.1.8_r75467 or 4.1.8_r75467_MacPorts which would be more compatible with existing string parsing?

This is the version that comes out of the DMG installed VirtualBox for reference

$ VBoxManage --version
4.1.8r75467

So I'd amend my bug report and say... Why not 4.1.8r75467 or 4.1.8r75467_MacPorts which would be more compatible with existing string parsing?

Macports...

$ VBoxManage --version
4.1.8_MacPortsr75467

virtualbox.org

$ VBoxManage --version
4.1.8r75467

suggest

$ VBoxManage --version
4.1.8r75467_MacPorts
