 Posted: Sun Sep 11, 2011 6:11 pm Post subject: Virtualbox-4.1.2 GUI tools missing after emerging? (SOLVED) |
 |
|
So, I quite often use virtualbox for testing and what not, and I prefer the 4.1.2 version, so, I configured portage with the necessary ~amd64 mask settings.
Virtualbox compiles with no issues, but the GUI tools for it are not to be found anywhere.
Ran locate in a terminal and, it is on my system with the VBoxHeadless tools available. I suppose I could run with it that way as I have in the past, but on a desktop system I would much prefer the GUI frontend.
Also, didn't see any bugs on bugs.gentoo.org.
Anyone else see this?

Answered my own question.
The QT4 USE flag needs to be enabled to pull in the GUI tools per the below wiki post.
Just added it to /etc/portage/package.use. Run Gnome, so I don't want QT support built into everything.
