Hi! For VirtualBox headless usage, libs for qt, x and sdl are not required. Anyway latest Virtualbox package for Ubuntu has those in its dependency list. Dependencies are handled very strict by the package management system and I see no option to ignore dependencies during installation. Would it be an option to have another package for headless setup with different dependencies?
Suggestions and comments welcome!
