Hey,
as figured out the problem here is if a group called "vboxusers" exists as
non-system group. Then the following command will fail with the following
error msg (removed the --quiet):
addgroup: The group `vboxusers' already exists and is not a system group.
Exiting.
With the current situation virtualbox-ose is completly broken in such a
case. I would suggest to first check for this group using getent. If it is
available don't do anything, if not create it.
Greetings
Patrick
