Details

Description:
There is a "notify-send" command in the script /usr/bin/VBoxClient-all (line 26) used to report an error, but that command requires "libnotify".

Additional info:
* package version(s)
5.1.28-1
* config and/or log files etc.
Irrelevant.

Steps to reproduce:
Run "VBoxClient-all" without "libnotify" installed and without the kernel modules loaded, it will say "command not found" rather than the correct error message.

The command has been dropped, so this should no longer be an issue.
