Bug 204513 – app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-tools-1.5.4 (new ebuild)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Christopher Byrne 2008-01-06 07:22:53 UTC]

This is ebuild request 2 of 4 for the VritualBox Guest Additions ebuild requests. This one depends on Bug #204511.

I have created the  ebuild, virtualbox-guest-tools-1.5.4. I propose it go under the category "app-emulation". This ebuild is for Linux GUESTS running under VirtualBox - it adds the user-space utilties that use the Guest Extensions; such a the shared clipboard; mouse integration, and shared folders. Thus, Gentoo guests no longer have to run the Guest Extensions ISO. They can now be handles with the usual portage tools, like "emerge".

Hi,
i reworked the submitted ebuild(s), i choose to merge kernels modules and userspace tools ( respectively	bug #204511 and bug #204513) under a sigle
ebuild called app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions[1], too keep things
simple, because of size and to better reflect the Innotek name conventions.
