virtualbox @4.1.2 Configure error - qt4 not found

[gthb (Gunnlaugur Thor Briem)]

Tried to install virtualbox (with and without +vde2) just now; it fails saying “qt4 not found” at the configure step.

port info does state the qt4-mac dependency, and I don't have qt4-mac installed, but port install still neglects to install the dependency.

main.log is attached.

The log shows you have qt3 installed. Uninstall qt3 and try again.

sudo port uninstall qt3
sudo port clean virtualbox
sudo port install virtualbox

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

It actually depends on path:bin/qmake:qt4-mac. Does qt3 provide ${prefix}/bin/qmake? If so, the depspec is incorrect (I'm assuming from Ryan's comment that virtualbox doesn't work with qt3.)

I'm closing this -- It seems to arise from factors external to VirtualBox and the VirtualBox port.
