Description unholygoatofshame 2024-09-24 09:50:17 UTC
Hello.

I am trying to do usual daily system update with Discover on KDE Plasma, but today I got an error that prevented me from updating. Currently I did not try any actions as I am afraid that I will break my VirtualBox setup by accident. Here is the error text I get in Discover:

Internal error:

Error running transaction: file /usr/bin/VBoxAudioTest from install of virtualbox-guest-additions-7.1.0-2.fc40.x86_64 conflicts with file from package VirtualBox-7.1-7.1.0_164728_fedora40-1.x86_64

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start automatic update in Discover
2. get an error
3.
Actual Results:  
system update is not starting and throws an error

Expected Results:  
system update updates all the packages that require updates

Not sure what information I should add here.

is you not running Feodra on vm , you remove remove virtualbox-guest-additions

dnf remove virtualbox-guest-additions

Comment 2 Shadders 2024-09-24 14:23:03 UTC
Hi,
I am getting the same issue on my main PC when using dnf update command. 

Is the solution to remove virtualbox-guest-additions no matter what the installation ?

Regards,
Shadders.
