I wonder where you have that 4.3.4 port from. But it might be that you have messed it up or did not use the only trustworthy source for vbox [1] ports or just copied it over an existing port. [1] svn co https://svn.redports.org/virtualbox > 4.2.20 doesn't compile either. It ends with this error: > > /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldl > kmk: *** > [/usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose/work/VirtualBox-4.2.20/out/freebsd.amd64/release/obj/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.so] > Error 1 > > Dispite my attempt to remove -ldl (which applies to only to linux, > according to what i googled) from all occurences I could find, it > somehow keeps sneaking in again. There is no 4.2.20 port yet so I can't say much about that except that I don't know how your port looks like and I can't support stuff I don't know. If you want to fiddle around with vbox port development please join us on IRC.
