[SOLVED] Kernel 3.14.6-1 and virtualbox-host-modules 4.3.12-2

pacman -Syu updated my kernel today to 3.14.6-1. Since then, systemd reports failure on systemd-modules-load and dmesg reports:

[    5.585774] vboxdrv: disagrees about version of symbol platform_driver_unregister
[    5.585782] vboxdrv: Unknown symbol platform_driver_unregister (err -22)
[    5.585881] vboxdrv: disagrees about version of symbol platform_device_register
[    5.585884] vboxdrv: Unknown symbol platform_device_register (err -22)
[    5.585909] vboxdrv: disagrees about version of symbol platform_device_unregister

My virtualbox-host-modules is in sync with [Community] (4.3.12-2), so I assume this is an out-of-date issue on virtualbox-host-modules? If so, is there a way to expedite an update to virtualbox-host-modules?

Nope.

But, you might try again.  I just upgraded and my virtualbox-host-modules upgraded to virtualbox-host-modules-4.3.12-2-x86_64

Edit:  Never mind, I see you have the same version as do I.

Awesome - maintainer/packager has updated the package - everything appears to be working fine again.

I know this is all volunteer work, and I certainly appreciate the hard work and speedy response!
