Changelog for virtualbox-guest-desktop-icons-6.1.34-645.27.noarch.rpm :

* Tue Jun 21 2022 Larry Finger - Package vboximg-mount correctly. boo#1200769.
* Wed Jun 08 2022 Dominique Leuenberger - Explicitly BuildRequire pkgconfig(glx) and pkgconfig(glu): This happened to be pulled in by SDL-devel, but with the switch to sdl12-compat, this no longer happens. Virtualbox explicitly checks for them though, so it is our own responsibility to have those deps in place.
* Fri May 27 2022 Larry Finger - Update fixes_for_kernel_5.18.patch to save and restore FPU status during interrupt. The change fixes boo#1199803.
* Sat May 21 2022 Ben Greiner - Update support of building with Python
* Add vbox-python-py310.patch for support of Python 3.10 https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/commit/59d75cd22 https://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/90537/vbox https://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/86623/vbox
* Drop switch_to_python3.4+.patch and vbox-python-detection.diff; replace by vbox-python-selection.patch for what is left of the above after removing some obvious cruft. Could still be more in there.
* Remove unnecessary reusage of old python2 macros, we use python-rpm-macros already.
* Tue May 17 2022 Dominique Leuenberger - Replace SDL-devel BuildRequires with pkgconfig(sdl): allow to use sdl12_compat as an alternative.
* Wed May 11 2022 Martin Liška - Filter out rpmlint error that is valid for qemu, but will have its badness increased in the future.

* Wed Apr 17 2019 Larry Finger - The VirtualBox packages for both Tumbleweed and Leap 15.1 are now derived from the sources in Factory; however, the underlying kernels are very different in that vboxvideo.ko is built-into the TW kernel, thus the package did not try to build that module. The result is that Leap 15.1 guests have only 640x480 resolution (boo#1132439). These changes conditionally turn building of the kernel module back on. As TW does not need the module, it is only built for Leap 15.1.
* Sun Apr 14 2019 Larry Finger - An instance of /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBoxVM being installed without SUID privilege has been reported as boo#1132379. Unfortunately, the error message thrown by VB in this case is rather opaque. To help the user recover, the wrapper /usr/bin/VirtualBox has been modified to check the permissions and pop up a warning describing the problem and showing the command needed to fix the problem. File \"vbox-suid-warning.diff\" is added.
