Comment on VirtualBox broken on Ivy Bridge Macbooks after 10.8.2 and Firmware Update

This is another benefit of still being on Lion. I didn't have to deal with weird homebrew issues and now I don't have to deal with this. I have not upgraded to Mountain Lion on any of my machines, and the way things are going I'm probably not going to until forced.

Just out of curiosity: which weird issues? The only "issues" I had involved installing XQuartz, and chowning /usr/local/ back to me[1]

I don't actually know any details. All I know is that when several of my coworkers upgraded to 10.8 components of their homebrew setup stopped working. It may have been related to ruby.

If I remember correctly, I had to reinstall xcode to get it working again

And install command line tools within Xcode.
