Bug Description
Trying to install the package virtualbox-ext-pack 5.2.10-3 produces the following error message:
Hash mismatch Oracle_
I manually downloaded Oracle_
Unlike the installer script I chose to use https for the download.
As the certificate seemed to be valid, I am more or less sure, I at least got the version the legit owner of the CN www.virtualbox.org seems to offer.
Investigating the problem further I found out, there seems to have been an update of the extension pack from version 5.2.10-122088 to 5.2.10-122406 just yesterday.
Oracle_
Oracle_
Downloading the older 122088 release I was able to verify this one produces the sha256 checksum named above.
Most probably the "file" named Oracle_
Which would mean the variable hash on line 5 of the postinst script would have to be updated to the checksum of the newer version as well.
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
