Did your team forget the debian ubuntu users who want to keep in touch of new releases of virtualbox by just adding the /etc/apt/sources.list? I used that way since spring 2007 and it worked like a charme. But now I tried to step forward with the following entries for Ubuntu 8.04 versions: {{{ # VirtualBox debian source by InnoTek GmbH/Sun Microsystems deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian hardy non-free }}} No success :-( latest version working was {{{ deb http://www.virtualbox.org/debian gutsy non-free }}} Ubuntu 8.04 (=hardy) was released two weeks ago. Hardy is a long term support version (desktop editions until 2011 and server edition until 2013). In my opinion Ubuntu hardy will be more requested than older ones. Sure I know the binaries related to Hardy Heron can be downloaded at your Sun download center and installed the manual alternate way. But why running the hard way if you can get the best one like before? And, did your team revoke that common usual download way with signed packages? If yes, will that be announced? A lot of ubuntu users would like to have a download possibility at http://www.virtualbox.org/debian/dists/hardy/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.gz or similar. An alternate will be to get the virtualbox from the ubuntu repositories, but do you have an agreement with the ubuntu repository staff to do that right after your release day? Kind regards Roland" task closed other VirtualBox 1.6.0 fixed repository, hardy heron, hardy non-free other other
