Virtualbox 7.1.0 Cannot install extension pack.

The problem here is that the extension pack was built with -std=c++14 (or earlier), but virtualbox was built with -std=c++17 (or something later), which is a requirement because of the use of the <filesystem> header. As per https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/noexcept_spec , "noexcept" is part of the function signature in C++17, and so that's why virtualbox has—wait for it—..CallbackEPDoFiPS.. instead of CallbackEPFiPS (the Do part is that noexcept specifier). Well, in short, that's the bad part of the ext pack being closed-source.
