19117	virtualbox service script references missing directory	Harry M		"If the directory ""/usr/share/doc/virtualbox"" does not exist, /etc/init.d/virtualbox script does not work.

The script tests for the existence of the directory and if it does not exist, the script quits at that point.  There is, however, a directory named ""/usr/share/doc/virtualbox-6.0"" and by soft linking that directory to ""/usr/share/doc/virtualbox"" I was able to get the script to run.

This is obviously not a good solution since the next major release of virtualbox will like be named virtualbox-7.0, at which time I will need to replace the softlink.  This is important because I am attempting to shut down my system gracefully rather than having all my VMs die a tragic death... this is particularly an issue upon a power failure."	defect	closed	other	VirtualBox 6.0.14	obsolete	init script /etc/init.d/virtualbox		Linux	Linux
