problem seems to be that =sys-apps/net-tools-1.60_p20120127084908 moved /sbin/ifconfig to /bin/ifconfig, and VirtualBox has a hard-coded path to the old location. If you check the VirtualBox source: kurly@smile ~/VirtualBox-4.1.22 $ grep '/sbin/ifconfig' -R src/apps src/apps/adpctl/VBoxNetAdpCtl.cpp:#define VBOXADPCTL_IFCONFIG_PATH "/sbin/ifconfig" There is a hard-coded path to the old location. It is unclear whether the "correct" solution is to patch VirtualBox, add a symlink, or move ifconfig back. This issue also exists in ~amd64's VirtualBox, which at the time of this writing is 4.2.6. If you use the latest net-tools, VirtualBox's host-only networking is broken on both amd64 and ~amd64. +*virtualbox-4.2.6-r1 (09 Feb 2013) + + 09 Feb 2013; Lars Wendler <polynomial-c@gentoo.org> + virtualbox-4.1.22-r1.ebuild, virtualbox-4.1.24.ebuild, + virtualbox-4.2.4-r1.ebuild, -virtualbox-4.2.6.ebuild, + +virtualbox-4.2.6-r1.ebuild: + Fixed location of ifconfig binary.

You should report this problem to upstream. There's nothing we can do in the virtualbox-bin package to fix this problem and good luck to convince base-system to move ifconfig back or add a symlink because of a package where's a perfectly useable open source alternative available. |
