Description WGH 2015-07-20 09:19:38 UTC
app-emulation/vagrant-1.4.3-r2 doesn't support app-emulation/virtualbox-5.0.0.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install vagrant
2. Install virtualbox-5.0.0
3. Try to launch vagrant
Actual Results:  
% vagrant box update
The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine
'default' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The
reason is shown below:

Vagrant has detected that you have a version of VirtualBox installed
that is not supported. Please install one of the supported versions
listed below to use Vagrant:

4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3

Expected Results:  
I expected that everything would be fine.

I think our vagrant ebuild should explicitly list supported virtualbox versions.
Comment 1 WGH 2015-07-20 09:21:33 UTC
Err, I actually meant app-emulation/vagrant-bin-1.7.2-r2 (but app-emulation/vagrant-1-4.3-r2 is probably affected as well).
Comment 2 Michael Gn. Gajda 2015-12-24 15:16:45 UTC
I can confirm that version 1.4.3 suffers from the same issue.

According to the changelog https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/blob/v1.7.3/CHANGELOG.md support for virtualbox 5.0 was added with version 1.7.3.

Packaging a more recent version of vagrant is difficult on gentoo becuase of many missing dependencies. There is a -bin package (and ebuild for 1.7.4) available and discussed in bug #563548 .

I suggest closing this bug and moving efforts towards supporting a recent version of vagrant on gentoo.

Version 1.8.1 in tree, works with latest Virtualbox.
