GetVirtualBox 4.1.2 fails? [SOLVED]
« on: September 04, 2011, 04:12:51 AM »
Hi all,
I have just returned home after a 6-months stay abroad.
Revived and updated my PCLOS installation, I tried to execute GetVirtualBox 4.1.2, but got the following which I feel isn't quite as it should be:

Can anyone help me out with this?

Thank you in advance!
Cris

Just a thought - being such a long time, did you reboot after doing the update?

Edit - BTW, have you read these posts about aptupdate?

menotu, thank you for your help.

I had seen the topic about aptupgrade, and had already followed the instructions.
I also think I rebooted after all the updates.

I just tried to re-run getvirtualbox, and this time it completed without errors... well, it is confusing but I'm happy it worked the second time.

Bye
Cris
