Created attachment 1559721 [details] virtualbox-kmod build failed Description of problem: I installed VirtualBox using the VirtualBox package provided by Fedora. Following the documentation I ran "akmods" command to build the kernel module. The kernel module build failed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version : 5.2.20 How reproducible: always Actual results: see attachment Expected results: build should have been successful Additional info: It seems that a more recent version of akmod-VirtualBox is available in the repo, but a package conflict prevent is installation: $ sudo dnf install akmod-VirtualBox-6.0.6-2.fc29.x86_64 Dernière vérification de l’expiration des métadonnées effectuée il y a 0:09:25 le lun. 29 avril 2019 02:25:20 CEST. Erreur : Problème: problem with installed package virtualbox-guest-additions-6.0.4-2.fc29.x86_64 - package virtualbox-guest-additions-6.0.4-2.fc29.x86_64 conflicts with VirtualBox-server > 6.0.4-2.fc29 provided by VirtualBox-server-6.0.6-2.fc29.x86_64 - package virtualbox-guest-additions-5.2.18-1.fc29.x86_64 conflicts with VirtualBox-server > 5.2.18-1.fc29 provided by VirtualBox-server-6.0.6-2.fc29.x86_64 - package akmod-VirtualBox-6.0.6-2.fc29.x86_64 requires VirtualBox-kmod-common >= 6.0.6, but none of the providers can be installed - conflicting requests (essayez d’ajouter « --allowerasing » à la ligne de commande pour remplacer les paquets en conflit ou « --skip-broken » pour ignorer les paquets non installables)
Hello , The packages conflicts was forced and it is made to avoid confusions . To install akmod-VirtualBox-6.0.6 you need have the same version of virtualbox-guest-additions or VirtualBox-server but virtualbox-guest-additions-6.0.6 still in updates-testing [1] the easy solution : dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing install akmod-VirtualBox-6.0.6-2.fc29.x86_64 [1] https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-ac9574ff93

I also see little point to enforce the "(minor) version" for virtualbox-guest-additions from akmod-VirtualBox, but there is sticly no reason to enforce it to use the same "release". Please fix as appropriate.
> I don't see the point to have the same "release" ops , I just want they have same version .
