Can't install Virtual box additions in GhostBSD because of a library error

Post by Frosch »

I have successfully installed GhostBSD as a guest OS in Virtual box 6.1.36. The problem is to install VB additions in the guest system (the host OS is Lubuntu 20.04). It gives me the following error message:

Code: Select all

$ sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing VirtualBox 6.1.36 Guest Additions for Linux........
VirtualBox Guest Additions installer
Unable to determine correct library path.
The package virtualbox-ose-additions is installed. Compatibility toggle linux_enable="YES" is on in /etc/rc.conf. I tried to run the mentioned script as root as well, that did not make any difference.

Any ideas will be appreciated...
