--no-install-recommends libqt4 dependencies

[therm]

I am very grateful to find that there's an option to install Virtualbox without the X server dependencies, as I'm running a headless ubuntu server.

However there are still libqt4 dependencies that are required to be installed.

:~$ sudo apt-get install virtualbox-4.2 --no-install-recommends

The only way to follow your request is to split packages into the X part and the non-X part. This would double the number of packages. Sorry, but we have not enough resources do do that. If you don't want the X part, install the .run package which does not have explicit dependencies.
