Oracle Linux
Users of Oracle Linux 6 and 7 can use the Oracle Linux yum repository and enable the ol6_developer channel for Oracle Linux 6 or the ol7_developer channel for Oracle Linux 7. After that, do
yum install VirtualBox-6.0
to get the latest maintenance release of VirtualBox 6.0.x installed.
Debian-based Linux distributions
Add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list. According to your distribution, replace '<mydist>' with 'artful', 'zesty', 'yakkety', 'xenial', 'trusty', 'stretch', 'jessie', or 'wheezy' (older versions of VirtualBox supported different distributions):
deb https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian <mydist> contrib
The Oracle public key for apt-secure can be downloaded
You can add these keys with
sudo apt-key add oracle_vbox_2016.asc sudo apt-key add oracle_vbox.asc
or combine downloading and registering:
wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add - wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
The key fingerprint for oracle_vbox_2016.asc is
B9F8 D658 297A F3EF C18D 5CDF A2F6 83C5 2980 AECF Oracle Corporation (VirtualBox archive signing key) <info@virtualbox.org>
The key fingerprint for oracle_vbox.asc is
7B0F AB3A 13B9 0743 5925 D9C9 5442 2A4B 98AB 5139 Oracle Corporation (VirtualBox archive signing key) <info@virtualbox.org>
(As of VirtualBox 3.2, the signing key was changed. The old Sun public key for apt-secure can be downloaded here.)
To install VirtualBox, do
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install virtualbox-6.0
Replace virtualbox-6.0 by virtualbox-5.2 to install the latest VirtualBox 5.2 build.
What to do when experiencing The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG ... when refreshing the packages from the repository?
# sudo -s -H # apt-get clean # rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* # rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* # apt-get clean # apt-get update
RPM-based Linux distributions
We provide a yum/dnf-style repository for Oracle Linux/Fedora/RHEL/openSUSE. All .rpm packages are signed. The Oracle public key for rpm can be downloaded here. You can add this key (not normally necessary, see below!) with
sudo rpm --import oracle_vbox.asc
or combine downloading and registering:
wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | rpm --import -
The key fingerprint is
7B0F AB3A 13B9 0743 5925 D9C9 5442 2A4B 98AB 5139 Oracle Corporation (VirtualBox archive signing key) <info@virtualbox.org>
After importing the public key, the package signature can be checked with
rpm --checksig PACKAGE_NAME
Note that importing the key is not necessary for yum users (Oracle Linux/Fedora/RHEL/CentOS) when using one of the virtualbox.repo files from below as yum downloads and imports the public key automatically! Zypper users should run
zypper refresh
The package signature is checked by yum/dnf/zypper as well:
- Users of Oracle Linux / RHEL can add the Oracle Linux repo file to /etc/yum.repos.d/.
- Users of Fedora can add the Fedora repo file to /etc/yum.repos.d/.
- Users of openSUSE can add the openSUSE repo file to /etc/zypp/repos.d/.
