I searched and tried multiple things with no luck. I am getting the following error when I tried to do a system udpate (below). It points to errors on the virtualbox-2.2 package, which was for Intrepid. I now have Maverick, but the system will not let me uninstall the package. How can I correct this? Any suggestion?
