Description Benjamin Block 2011-10-18 19:52:06 UTC
Hi folks,

I tried to update my vbox-Gentoo and the guest-additions wouldn't compile, so I looked a the build and it looks like that there is a dependency missing and some parameters of the configure-script. The configure-script fails without app-arch/makeself.

I wrote a rly quick'n'dirty patch, maybe it is of use to you.

best regards,
- Ben

Reproducible: Always
