Are you saying that more recent versions of VirtualBox can be built against Qt3? I was
under
the impression that after version 2.2.4 or thereabouts only Qt4 could be used.
Fishing through the ebuild shows that QT4 is definitely optional (switch --disable-qt4).
However, I'm not sure what kind of GUI, if any, you'd get without it—the other
deps
specified for a non-QT4, non-headless build don't include a widget set, just SDL,
OpenGL, and some X libs. An SDL-based GUI is possible, I suppose, but it's a bit
peculiar.
