This fixes the error message: GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory'
GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with other
applications.
It caused old saved settings to be forgotten, and new settings to be lost
when virt-manager is closed.
VirtualBox had support for DBUS even in version 4.x, but it appears that
nothing in our VM test triggered it to load, thus I didn't notice the
runtime error:
rtldrNativeLoad: dlopen('libdbus-1.so.3', RTLD_NOW | RTLD_LOCAL) failed:
libdbus-1.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory
The upstream commits I think are responsible for this to come to surface
are _probably_ (did I ever mention that I love SVN? *cough*) one of
these:

This seems to have been confusing people, using both xlibs and xorg, etc.
- Avoided renaming local (and different) xlibs binding in gcc*.
- Fixed cases where both xorg and xlibs were used.
Hopefully everything still works as before.
Regression introduced in 7ffb1f3bde.
Also added a small notice so that this hopefully won't happen with
future updates.

This reverts commit 0e0e3c0c08.
I've been seeing quite some QEMU segfaults on Hydra,
hopefully reverting the bump will fix the issue.

Second attempt to resolve this issue. Copies stage1 image into expected
place manually. This has been improved in rkt master where there is a
configure option for specifying the location of this file. Can update
when next stable rkt is released.
The rkt build process requires a stage1 image. By default it will try
and download one with wget from coreos.com during the build. This change
explicitly downloads the image using `fetchurl`, verifying checksum,
then passes that to the build using appropriate configure flag.
Using $storepath/sbin is deprecated according to commit 98cedb3, so
let's avoid putting anything in .../sbin for the guest additions.
This is a continuation of the initial commit done by @ctheune at
1fb1360, which unfortunately broke VM tests and only changed the path of
the mount.vboxsf helper.
With this commit, the VM test is fixed and I've also verified on my
machine that it is indeed working again.

This places mount.vboxsf in $out/bin instead of sbin, because as
reported in #9063 it seems that the the mount tools are no longer
looking into $storepath/sbin/mount.$what but into
$storepath/bin/mount.$what instead.
However, I haven't found any commit which changes this behavior and
couldn't reproduce it. Also, merging this will break the VirtualBox
tests, but I'm merging it anyway in an effort to remove $storepath/sbin
from virtualboxGuestAdditions entirely.
Tested against virtualbox NixOS VM test, which of course failed as said
before.
Changes:
- RemoteBox now requires VirtualBox 5.0.x
- Added guest support for USB 3.0
- Added OS icons for Windows 10, OS/2 1.x, Yosemite, El Capitan
- Added command line options for automatic login. See manual
- Added option to set the virtual VGA card of a guest to either
VirtualBox VGA or VMware SVGA-II

- Added support for adding USB storage controller to a guest
- Added support for adding transient shared folders
- Added support for setting IPv6 Port Forwarding rules on NAT networks
- Added option to convert disk images to VDI when importing an

These are currently FreeRDP (New Syntax), FreeRDP (Old Syntax),
Rdesktop, Windows Remote Desktop Client
- Added support for selecting the paravirtualization interface for
a guest
- Added keyboard toolbutton for quick access to common keyboard
sequences. The full keyboard menu is still available
- Fixed a problem with trailing slashes in a URL preventing the
remote display to a guest from opening.
- Fixed a problem with UTF8 strings affecting the listing of storage
attached to controllers
- Fixed an issue where stuck guests couldn't be stopped from the GUI
- Various GUI tweaks
Xen required a few changes in order to be usable:
* Include xenfs module in initrd as loading it in the activation
script was failing.
* Include /etc/default/xendomains, which is needed by
xen-domains service.
* Create /var/log/xen and /var/lib/xen directories in
the xen-store service, which are needed by the xl command.
The directories could be created by any other script as long as
they are guaranteed to exist before xl is called.
* Fix a reference to /bin/ls in the xendomains script.
Within fractions* of a second, the beautifully crafted history and
branching mechanisms of SVN found out the exact revision which caused
this to be visible in version 5.x but not in version 4.x:
https://www.virtualbox.org/changeset?old_path=%2Fvbox%2Ftrunk&old=30933&new_path=%2Fvbox%2Ftrunk&new=30934
Also note the very short URL and the informative changeset message which
shows you exactly what was the issue, I think.
Be warned however, it may contain traces of history amnesia, revision
epilepsy and other related diseases.
As for the issue itself: This was very much broken in 4.x as well, but
it didn't show an error message in the UI. The PulseAudio library is
loaded at runtime and it's not able to do that unless it's in
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
Now, we're doing the same as with the ALSA libraries: We're hardcoding
the path to the shared object file in patchPhase.
Thanks to @devhell for reporting and testing.

We also needed to drop the hunk about NATNetworkServiceRunner.cpp in the

This is espacially cruicial when it comes to Nix 1.9, where we even have
a more restrictive /nix/store. In any event, VirtualBox in hardenend
mode doesn't have to check the /nix/store path, because it's read-only
on NixOS systems. So this check would not introduce more security but
more hurdles, thus I'm removing it (of course _only_ for /nix/store).

The Nixos Qemu VM that are used for VM tests can now start without
boot menu even when using a bootloader.
The Nixos Qemu VM with bootloader can emulate a EFI boot now.
Because we have to rely on setuid wrappers on NixOS, we can't easily
hardcode the executable paths and set it 4755. So for all calls, we need
to change the runtime path executable directory to /var/setuid-wrappers/
and for verification we need to retain the executable directory.
Also note, that usually VBoxNetAdpCtl, VBoxNetDHCP, VBoxNetNAT, VBoxSDL
and VBoxVolInfo don't reside in directories that are commonly in PATH,
but in /usr/lib/virtualbox in most mainstream distros. But because the
names of these executables are distinctive enough to not cause
collisions with other setuid programs, I'll leave it like that and not
patch up setuid-wrappers.
