#19044 closed defect (fixed)

VBoxDarwinAdditionsUninstall.tool in the GAs ISO is not set as executable => Fixed in SVN

Reported by: Socratis Owned by:
Component: guest additions Version: VirtualBox 6.0.0
Keywords: VBoxDarwinAdditionsUninstall.tool Cc:
Guest type: OSX Server Host type: Mac OS X

Description

"VBoxDarwinAdditionsUninstall.tool" is not executable and cannot be run directly, has to be copied from the ISO somewhere locally, and "chmod +x" in order to work:

$ ls -l /Volumes/VBox_GAs_6.0.0/VBoxDarwinAdditionsUninstall.tool 
-r--r--r--  1 socratis  staff  3949 10 Δεκ  2018 /Volumes/VBox_GAs_6.0.0/VBoxDarwinAdditionsUninstall.tool

The issue actually exists since the beginning of time, when "VBoxDarwinAdditionsUninstall.tool" was first introduced with VirtualBox 6.0.0 RC1, and is still ongoing with 6.1.0b1+. Guess nobody noticed so far... ;)
