Description Erwin Lam 2018-08-16 09:02:07 UTC
If I try to install package VirtualBox version 5.2.16-lp150.4.9.1, this will also try to install package virtualbox-host-kmp-default version 5.2.16_k4.12.14_lp150.12.7-lp150.4.9.1. However, the latter package tries to downgrade the current package kernel-default version 4.12.14-lp150.12.13.1.
This is the latest leap 15.0 kernel from the update repo and I think that it is a bad idea to downgrade this package as it contains security fixes. It seems to me that there is an issue with the package virtualbox-host-kmp-default.
