Title: VM manager for Corepure64
Post by: core.dump on April 02, 2020, 07:10:45 AM

Hi,
Would it be possible to have Virtualbox or virt-manager available as extensions, please?

Have you tried  qemu and gnome-boxes?

Yes, this is what I get:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ gnome-boxes
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libosinfo-1.0.so.0: version `LIBOSINFO_1.4.0' not found (required by gnome-boxes)
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libosinfo-1.0.so.0: version `LIBOSINFO_1.7.0' not found (required by gnome-boxes)
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libosinfo-1.0.so.0: version `LIBOSINFO_1.3.0' not found (required by gnome-boxes)
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libvirt-gobject-1.0.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_GOBJECT_3.0.0' not found (required by gnome-boxes)
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libvirt-gconfig-1.0.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_GCONFIG_3.0.0' not found (required by gnome-boxes)
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libvirt-gconfig-1.0.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_GCONFIG_0.2.4' not found (required by gnome-boxes)
gnome-boxes: /usr/local/lib/libvirt-gconfig-1.0.so.0: version `LIBVIRT_GCONFIG_2.0.0' not found (required by gnome-boxes)

Please note: libosinfo.tcz, libosinfo-gir.tcz, libosinfo-dev.tcz are all installed and so is libvirt-glib.tcz (providing libvirt-gobject and libvirt-gconfig).

However, IMHO it would be better to have Virtualbox working on TC, because it has its own engine and must not rely on an external emulator; moreover, qemu in TC is a bit outdated (repo version is 3.1.0, current version is 5.0.0).

Have you checked your system for updates (libosinfo and libvirt-glib were updated recently)?

It is a fresh installation

Using CorePure64-11.1, I deleted gnome-boxes, libosinfo and libvirt-glib. I then rebooted, downloaded them again and gnome-boxes works fine.
