#64 Extension Pack not detected
Server: Ubuntu 24.04 (6.8 kernel)
VBox: 7.2.2 - 170484
Ext: 7.2.2 - 170484
RBox: 3.7
Just upgraded VB installation to 7.2.2 and installed the matching extension pack (had waited until the first couple of releases to fix initial problems :) ) and started using RemoteBox 3.7 .. on first opening, it reports that there's no extensions installed ..? - also lists 'none' under server info.
Have confirmed (via vboxmanage list extpacks) that 7.2.2 extension pack is installed.
Edit: have now discovered that there was a mismatch between the root installation of VB and the user versions of the extension pack - I don't think I've ever seen this before. It would appear therefore, to be a slight difference in where the extension pack info is picked up from .. certainly the version under the user installation was well out of date(!), so I don't think this is a RB issue but rather something that's changed between VB 7.1 and 7.2.
Correct, it's not an RB issue. For the most part, all RB does it report what VB tells it - however with the guest additions it can be installed on a user basis, on a system basis or both.
