Where can I find VB 6.x for FreeBSD?

Post by testit »

Hi,

I wonder where I can find VB 6.X as a package or at least as a port for FreeBSD 11.4 or 12?

I only found version 5.2.

Thanks and best regards

All pre-built installer packages provided by Virtualbox are here: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads

Per PerryG's comment here: viewtopic.php?f=40&t=81513#p383548
all *BSD ports are maintained by them
You need to go to FreeBSD to get a Virtualbox installer. If they don't have 6.0.x or later, then you might have to build it from source code.
