current qtopengl breaks virtualbox

[Mingming Ren]

Virtualbox doesn't work with latest qt package in natty.

VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so",) failed: /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so: undefined symbol: _ZN10QGLContext9tryVisualERK9QGLFormati

Virtualbox works only after downgrade libqt4-opengl package.

mythfrontend is also broken by this.

Seeing the exact same issue with virtualbox after last night's update.

[Felix Geyer (debfx)]

4:4.7.1-0ubuntu10 is accidentally built with egl support.

[Le Gluon Du Net (legluondunet)]

same problem here for this morning.

[Ahmed Kamal (kim0)]

virtualbox stopped working here too

[Angel Guzman Maeso (shakaran)]

I try this, but it dont work:
$ virtualbox
VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so",) failed: /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so: undefined symbol: _ZN10QGLContext9tryVisualERK9QGLFormati

$ sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

Then I try to downgrade the package:
sudo aptitude install libqt4-core=4:4.7.0-0ubuntu4

But it dont work too, because the package it is on maverick (I don't know how to downgrade then)

[Mingming Ren (portis25)]

You can download manually the previous version from here:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/qt4-x11/4:4.7.1-0ubuntu9

And replace the libQtOpenGL files in /usr/lib/
It's ugly but it works.

[Francesc Vicent (fransex)]

I downgraded by installing three packages:

dpkg -i \
 libqt4-opengl_4.7.1-0ubuntu9_amd64.deb \
 libqtcore4_4.7.1-0ubuntu9_amd64.deb \
 libqtgui4_4.7.1-0ubuntu9_amd64.deb

that can be found in the pool/main/q/qt4-x11/ subdirectory of the mirrors.

[Oded Arbel (oded-geek)]

Downgrading works for me - I can now run VirtualBox

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package qt4-x11 - 4:4.7.1-0ubuntu11

---------------
qt4-x11 (4:4.7.1-0ubuntu11) natty; urgency=low

  * Explicitly disable EGL support on all architectures except ARM. The last
    version accidentally enabled it as libegl1-mesa-dev was pulled in.

  * Cast use of double in kubuntu_28_xi2.1.patch to fix FTBFS on armel.

#10 Version 4:4.7.1-0ubuntu11 makes my guest OS (windows7 x64) to close unexpectedly before having completely started. I downgraded to 4.7.1-0ubuntu9 and the guest worked fine again.

A new bug report has been opened for this error: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/725959

[Le Gluon Du Net (legluondunet)]

I just updated natty, the new QT paquages resolved two of my bugs: I can now launch projectM and virtualbox.

Thank you.

[Reinis Zumbergs (reinis-zumbergs)]

[Jason Reusch (jason-reusch)]
