You should say yes.

It seems to keep getting installed. It shouldn=92t be now that I=92ve got t=
hings ironed out.

It isn=92t required to build ports. Well, it was for a couple of days due t=
o a bug, but I=92ve fixed that bug.

Remove it. It should ask you at most one more time.

Yea. I understand. The WITHOUT_NIS was a different, and subtle, bug that I =
fixed as well.

My advise: update to the tip of head, buildworld, install world, delete-old=
 (making sure you say =91yes=92) and then try virtualbox-ose build again. I=
t should just work. If it doesn=92t then send in a bug report since I misse=
d something when I fixed nvidia and cuse builds.

Thanks for the report. I hope I can get this all ironed out for you. I thin=
k I have already, but the build system is rather fragile, I=92m coming to d=
iscover, and used in several non-obvious use cases that seem obvious after =
the bug report comes in=85 Sorry these slipped through the cracks in my tes=
ting...
