LEAP 16 -Virtual box error

English Applications
1

I updated leap 16 to kernel 6.12.0-160000.27-default from 6.12.0-160000.26-default.
VirtualBox is up to date as well (updated).
Now VirtualBox won’t start showing this error"
symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxRT.so: undefined symbol: MD2_Init, version OPENSSL_3.0.0

Note that secure boot is disabled .

I also have crash using wayland session on optimus card (as soon as mouse pointer is entering on external screen, everythig stops - nothing in the logs), with the proprietary Nvidia driver (previous kernel is ok), when using a Plasma session is works.
The previous kernel had no problem with wayland.
This is probably another topic though.

Thanks

See Virtualbox - Update nicht vollständig - #21 by vkrevs

Basically, do not install any Leap 16.0 packages from OBS until updated openssl is available from the standard Leap 16.0 repo.

Well, I updated what was suggested in Discover.

These are my repositories:

It is possible to workaround the issue with virtualbox by downloading the official leap 16 virtualbox rpm from virtualbox.org, replacing /usr/lib/virtualbox with the one from the rpm (without installing that rpm!!!), and executing

  chown -R root:root /usr/lib/virtualbox
  cd /usr/lib/virtualbox
  chown root:vboxusers VBoxHeadless VBoxNetAdpCtl VBoxNetDHCP VBoxNetNAT VBoxPermissionMessage VBoxSDL VBoxSUIDMessage VBoxUSB_DevRules VirtualBoxQt VirtualBoxVM
  chmod u=rwxs,g=rx,o= VirtualBoxVM

Note that if you reboot the machine after doing this, then the virtualbox kmp won’t start. Solution to that - temporarily restore the original /usr/lib/virtualbox directory, and run “/sbin/rcvboxdrv restart”, then switch back to /usr/lib/virtualbox directory set up using the above steps.

@francky06l ,
Please, to make the pieces of computer code in your posts better consumable by technical oriented people:

The update channel for Leap 16.0 is currently stuck, might be repaired for the weekend, please see OBS builds for Leap 16.0 are using unreleased openssl version?

Thanks,
So wait & see then, really hope it won’t take weeks !!

Updated, virtual box is now running fine.
Still have the issue with WayLand though (crash when moving the mouse on external screen), Plasma X11 is fine.
Thanks
