[Slackbuilds-users] virtualbox-ose.SlacBuild on Multilib install

Thu Oct 1 06:30:58 UTC 2009

Hi Heinz,

Thank you for the instant reply. On my part, I am overwhelmed with other
chores as usual and virtualbox takes long to compile.

I confirm that gsoap from www.slackbuilds.org plays fine with
virtualbox-ose, but there was an update to 2.7.14. I always tweak the
SlackBuilds to the latest source when the script looks standard enough but
this time round, it did not pay.

I also confirm that editing LIBDIRSUFFIX is not necessary. I take your word
that it is "certainly wrong".

However, I have to confirm that unless I have finally gone crazy,
VBOXUSERS=no is not respected by the SlackBuild. Moreover, setting
HARDENING=no and VBOXUSERS=no crashes the SlackBuild when the patches kick
in. The README seems to indicate setting that HARDENING=no and VBOXUSERS=no
is not foreseen.

The error virtualbox-ose.SlackBuild with WEBSERVICES=yes and gsoap-2.7.14
gives is the following:

Actually, you don't need a full multiplib setup. The gcc and glibc packages 
are sufficient.

It works fine here. What's the error you get?

Now, this is certainly wrong. Do *NOT* do this!

If VBOXUSERS is not respected, you are using Hardening. You have to 
additionally pass HARDENING=no to the script. I personally wouldn't do this
in 
a production environment though.
