Description Bob Goddard 2023-06-09 13:56:43 UTC 
Here we go again.

Just installed 15.5 in a VB guest.

The modules are not installed - why not?

So, I install them, try to build them and load the modules.

Yet again, the the modules fail to load due to key issues.

This has been happening for years.

Not enough info as no need to build them.

For 15.5 guest additions you just need 2 entries
