When I try to install the virtual-guest-additions to a gentoo guest os, after removing the sed lines from all the required ebuilds (bug 262271) and downloading fresh tarball from VirtualBox.org, the following happens: I keep getting the following from my build log: [32;01m*[0m Determining the location of the kernel source code [32;01m*[0m Found kernel source directory: [32;01m*[0m /usr/src/linux [32;01m*[0m Found kernel object directory: [32;01m*[0m /lib/modules/2.6.28-gentoo-r3/build [32;01m*[0m Found sources for kernel version: [32;01m*[0m 2.6.28-gentoo-r3 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking VirtualBox-2.1.4-3-OSE.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions-2.1.4/work /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions-2.1.4/temp/environment: line 3243: VirtualBox-2.1.4-3_OSE/src/VBox/Additions/linux/export_modules: No such file or directory >>> Unpacking ./vbox-kmod.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions-2.1.4/work [31;01m*[0m [31;01m*[0m ERROR: app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions-2.1.4 failed.
