Re: [gentoo-user] libvirt needs VirtualBox XPCOMC
You should fill a bug then, if you are sure.

Else try emerging virtualbox-ose or virtualbox-bin befire libvirt. nothing's changed. But this is probably a bug? I believe so. emerge should never fail, in my opinion. if the ebuild lacks a dependency, it should be pulled; if the code doesn't compile, use patches; if it has more than one conflicting USE flags, warn the user and use a default flag; anyway, it should never fail, specially like that. :-) On Wed, Jul 7, 2010 at 1:11 PM, App Deb wrote: > Do you want to use libvirt with virtualbox?

Re: [gentoo-user] libvirt needs VirtualBox XPCOMC
Do you want to use libvirt with virtualbox? If not (say you want to use it with kvm or something else) try emerging libvirt without the virtualbox flag using package.use . Else try emerging virtualbox-ose or virtualbox-bin befire libvirt. But this is probably a bug? libvirt should have virtualbox as a dependency if the use flag is enabled, I think.
