It seems to keep getting installed. It shouldn’t be now that I’ve got things ironed out. > 2.

Should I keep src.opts.mk at delete-old or remove it? Remove it.

The WITHOUT_NIS was a different, and subtle, bug that I fixed as well. My advise: update to the tip of head, buildworld, install world, delete-old (making sure you say ‘yes’) and then try virtualbox-ose build again. It should just work. If it doesn’t then send in a bug report since I missed something when I fixed nvidia and cuse builds. Thanks for the report. I hope I can get this all ironed out for you. I think I have already, but the build system is rather fragile, I’m coming to discover, and used in several non-obvious use cases that seem obvious after the bug report comes in… Sorry these slipped through the cracks in my testing...
