    New kernel 3.11 doesn't akmod Virtualbox at all!

    After I updated and rebooted to the new kernel of 3.11, akmod just could not build a new kmod-virtualbox for me as usual.

    I had met with such issues for several times before, and I could always find a new kmod-virtualbox available on rpmfusion, but this time no luck.

    Have tried and failed to build it with
    Code:
    akmods --kernels 3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64
    and got errors like these:

    Code:
    make[1]: *** [/tmp/akmodsbuild.Wkqs82FP/BUILD/VirtualBox-kmod-4.2.16/_kmod_build_3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64/vboxsf/dirops.o] Error 1
    make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
    make: *** [_module_/tmp/akmodsbuild.Wkqs82FP/BUILD/VirtualBox-kmod-4.2.16/_kmod_build_3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64/vboxsf] Error 2
    make: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64'
    What can I do then?

    You can download and install VirtualBox RPM from original web-site and rebuild VBox kernel modules manually.
    It works for me on 3.11.1

    Thanks! Will try and post back.

    Editing: Downloaded and installed the latest official rpm, It works fine. Thanks for Arch3r!

    But, still, I hope rpmfusion can be updated, or akmod can work again.
