Description Matej Kieres 2015-01-21 10:06:18 CET
Unfortunately, I am not able to install VirtualBox (kmod) on kernel-3.17.8-300, nor is the Kernel kernel-3.17.7-300 somewhere available (was it ever released??).

This issue was originally reported here:

yeah VirtualBox-kmod for 4.3.20-2.3  was never built [1], I commit 

4.3.20-2.3
 - s/$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{buildroot}/g. 

and Nicolas also try commit 4.3.20-2.3 

Nicolas we need al least least changelog , when you bumpspec, you don't do cvs up before so your commit was reject ... 

also email: RPM Fusion (Fedora - free) Package Build Report 2015-01-11 proves that kmod-virtualbox wasn't publish [2]

Changelog is fixed, can you verify that Virtual-kmod build and run fine with 3.18 kernel ?
Comment 8 Matej Kieres 2015-01-23 11:06:57 CET
When will this be fixed ?

3.18 has not been released. Fedora 21's current Kernel is:

[root@batmans_cave]# uname -r
3.17.8-300.fc21.x86_64

Unfortunately , I think not, it will give too much work, something like rollback 
buildsys-build-rpmfusion from 21-7 to 21-5 build kmod for Virtualbox etc 

3.18 as marked as stable :
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-0937/kernel-3.18.3-201.fc21

but if you don't want wait you can update kernel now, using updates-testing :

yum  --enablerepo=updates-testing,rpmfusion-free-updates-testing update --advisory FEDORA-2015-0937
Comment 10 Matej Kieres 2015-01-23 14:57:24 CET
+1 Solved

yum update kernel --enablerepo=updates-testing
reboot
yum install VirtualBox --enablerepo=rpmfusion-free-updates-testing

Thank you Sérgio!
