virtualbox-ose port fails (12.1)

[Christoph Kukulies]

I knew why I initially began compiling the virtual box. Then I got the advice here to use the pckg. Trying that I ended up in a failing (panicking) vboxvfs.ko module.

The got another advice to stick with compiling the port since it better matches the distributed kernel (12.1.)

Anyway, now I’m stuck in builing the virtualbox-ose port.

First there was a glitch when pythin 2.7 had to be built. a security warning had to be overwritten by

DISABLE_VUNERABILITIES=yes

That done the next time the build stops at

I’m wondering anyway why two python versions (2 and 3) have to be built . But that left aside, how do I now get around this obstacle?
