New VirtualBox releases are coming thick and fast. On July 15, Oracle released version 4.0.12. Yesterday, four days later, version 4.1.0 was released.<br>
<br>
At this rate, it's going to be next to impossible for the repositories to keep up, and to remain viable for all users they may not even want to try.<br>
<br>
If a user wants to try it on his own, what would be the best procedure? I had originally thought that for now the Oracle-supplied Mandriva rpms would probably work, but I've read that they won't because they use a version of Python different from that of Mageia.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>They do work with a small workaround (<a href="http://dodonov.net/blog/2011/07/19/upstream-virtualbox-openssl-versions-on-mandriva/">http://dodonov.net/blog/2011/07/19/upstream-virtualbox-openssl-versions-on-mandriva/</a>).<br>
<br>We were actually discussing it with misc on cooker yesterday, and from what I understood they won't be supported out-of-the-box by Mageia unless Oracle starts to recompile their packages with openssl 1.0.0. <br></div>
