Chocolatey Version

1.3.1

Chocolatey License

None

Package Version

7.0.6 -> 7.0.6.20230201

Current Behaviour

For a few months, I have been unable to update VirtualBox. running the command: choco upgrade VirtualBox results in the following output:

Chocolatey v1.3.1
Upgrading the following packages:
virtualbox
By upgrading, you accept licenses for the packages.

You have virtualbox v7.0.6 installed. Version 7.0.6.20230201 is available based on your source(s).

Failures

 See log for details.

i believe the error occurs because VirtualBox reports it's version differently to how chocolatey reports it, VirtualBox reports it's version as 7.0.6 while chocolatey reports it as 7.0.6.20230201.

Expected Behaviour

either update VirtualBox to 7.0.6.20230201 or recognise the latest version is installed and remove it from the outdated list

Steps To Reproduce

1. install virtualbox 7.0.6 from the oracle VirtualBox website
2. attempt to update VirtualBox through the command "choco upgrade all" or "choco upgrade VirtualBox"
3. wait for the update process to fail.

Environment

- Operating System:Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.19045.0
- PowerShell Version:5.1.19041.2673

This is a duplicate of #2144 and may be fixed by #2137

I suggest we leave this one open so that other people can see it and don't have to raise another issue because of it.
