Oldest version of app-emulation/virtualbox in the tree is 4.3.28 (stable).

If there was a bug in virtualbox-4.1.22-r1 or mesa then I think it has been fixed then.

[Comment 4 Ian Delaney (RETIRED) 2015-09-04 07:18:49 UTC]

Long purged from portage

[Comment 5 REdOG 2020-05-07 12:20:09 UTC]

I have this same error for version 5.2.40..

[Comment 6 Reversed suomynonA 2020-10-27 10:25:06 UTC]

Same error for app-emulation/virtualbox-6.0.24.

As this seems to be an unresolved configuration problem, it is neither obsolete nor has it been resolved in 2015.

The header <GL/glu.h> cannot be found and should be a (transitive) dependency of virtualbox. Should media-libs/glu be a direct dependency of virtualbox? Or should the dependency media-libs/libsdl include the USE of opengl?

[Comment 7 Victor Orozco 2020-12-02 18:41:41 UTC]

I had today the exact same issue. 

As commented by #6 it was solved by installing media-libs/glu

    app-emulation/virtualbox: [QA] add missing virtual/glu dependency
    
    Notably a few of our patches even add an #include on the GLU headers.
