Description
Virtualbox 5.2.18, released on Aug 14, was not made available for the Fedora 28 repository.
The rpm is missing in http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/fedora/28/x86_64/
However, the file is present in the F26 repository: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/fedora/26/x86_64/
Since it seems to be the same file, it just needs to be copied to ../f28

Thanks for the explanation!
An easy workaround would be to modify the .repo file and point all Fedora OS' to the F26 repo since the rpms are "all the same" (all symlink to F26).

The files are there, I just checked. The
"virtualbox/rpm/fedora/28/"points to the"virtualbox/rpm/fedora/26/"directory.This is a duplicate of #17929, #17930, #17931, #17932. All of them have to do with the symbolic links not being updated fast enough. At least not fast enough for the users to not open new tickets! :D
