I am getting the following error on #make deinstall

# make deinstall
===>  Deinstalling for emulators/virtualbox
===>   Deinstalling virtualbox-3.0.51.r22226
pkg_delete: file '/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/nls' doesn't exist
pkg_delete: unable to completely remove directory
'/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/nls'
pkg_delete: unable to completely remove directory '/usr/local/lib/virtualbox'
pkg_delete: couldn't entirely delete package (perhaps the packing list is
incorrectly specified?)

Btw, skipping that step and doing a #make reinstall

it only takes few secs... and gives

VirtualBox was installed.

but when i run it as a normal user i get:

$ VirtualBox
bash: /usr/local/bin/VirtualBox: No such file or directory
