Hey all. Just noting that VirtualBox has gone
missing from the stable dirs other than
packages-9-stable. There are still some various
VBox components and versions present in the
various -stable and -release FTP dirs. But in
general, it seems something broke?

Besides being outdated itself (3.2.12 vs. 4.1.10, or
even 4.0.16 or 3.2.14)...
I'm hesitant to use say the 8.2-release (3.2.12) since
all my pkgs are 8-stable, and looking its release
pkgdeps, it looks like it might bring in a lot of older
packages from back then (libs and things)?

What I have learned with FreeBSD is when building a new
server based on RELEASE, to build it, then do a cvsup
on the ports directory, then build all ports.  From that
point on don't add more ports until your ready to do
a make world and update everything.  (and many times I
just build a new server on new hardware when I hit that point)

If you try to use the ports directories from the RELEASE iso's
without doing a cvsup on the ports directories you will run into much grief.
