| nils_ | I'm trying to figure out how to build the kernel-tools (perf etc.) package for a custom kernel, this doesn't seem to be part of "make deb-pkg" | 08:22 |

| michael-vb | Hello, Michael from the VirtualBox team here. Just wondering who is the person who puts our Guest Additions modules into the Ubuntu kernel. I made a couple of changes today which will affect your script when they are inside a released version. | 11:58 |
| michael-vb | https://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/78446/vbox | 11:58 |
| michael-vb | https://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/78447/vbox | 11:58 |
| michael-vb | They should be in any future 6.x releases (not 5.x though). | 11:58 |
| apw | sforshee, cascardo ^ | 12:42 |
| sforshee | michael-vb: thanks, those look like they will be helpful | 13:08 |
| LocutusOfBorg | sforshee, I'm uploading to Debian/Ubuntu | 13:08 |
| michael-vb | LocutusOfBorg: wasn't wanting to create more work for you, it will be in the next release anyway. | 13:09 |
| LocutusOfBorg | its fine :) | 13:10 |
| LocutusOfBorg | I take ~1minute to do it | 13:10 |
| LocutusOfBorg | sforshee, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox-hwe/6.0.6-dfsg-2ubuntu19.04.1 is it ok to take them from here? | 13:25 |
| LocutusOfBorg | or here, I reuploaded with eoan versioning scheme https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox-hwe/6.0.6-dfsg-2ubuntu19.10.1 | 13:25 |
| LocutusOfBorg | otherwise in 16h you will have the virtualbox syncd automagically :D | 13:26 |
| michael-vb | Did you add the patch to that build? | 13:26 |
| sforshee | LocutusOfBorg: the hwe kernel source is identical to the series it is based on, in this case disco, so the update for the hwe kernel would actually be taken from there | 13:28 |
| sforshee | we don't routinely update the vbox-guest source after release though | 13:28 |
| sforshee | where we'd be looking to integrate this is in eoan | 13:29 |
| michael-vb | It is not really the sort of change you want to be doing an update for. | 13:29 |
| michael-vb | It just means that when you do do an update you need to change your script slightly. | 13:35 |
| LocutusOfBorg | sforshee, I am targeting eoan, I just put a wrong "19.04" on changelog | 13:40 |
| sforshee | LocutusOfBorg: ah, ok. Yeah we can update from there once the build is done then | 13:41 |
| LocutusOfBorg | but its virtualbox-hwe, not virtualbox | 13:42 |
| LocutusOfBorg | so, maybe your script doesn't download the right deb | 13:42 |
| sforshee | the part about downloading the deb is manual for now | 13:42 |
| sforshee | I've actually been looking into changing this to download at build time rather than a manual import, and if we move forward with that it would be a different story. But for now it's ok I believe. | 13:43 |
| LocutusOfBorg | mmm also paths are different, and filenames... | 13:43 |
| sforshee | well I can give it a try and see what happens I guess | 13:44 |
| LocutusOfBorg | better wait for this one probably https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/6.0.6-dfsg-2~build1 | 13:45 |
| sforshee | ok, there's no rush as it will be going into 5.1 which is net yet ready for -proposed | 13:45 |
| LocutusOfBorg | sforshee, fixed vbox is migrating now in release pocket | 15:49 |
| LocutusOfBorg | :) | 15:49 |
| sforshee | LocutusOfBorg: great, thanks! | 15:49 |
