phpvirtualbox was a one man show (imoore76) for a long time but when he stopped it was dead for a year or more. Now a new guy has taken it over and tries to maintain it but looking at the history tells you this is basically collecting patches to keep it working. There is no improvement or development they just try to keep it working and did not manage to do a release for two years. I'd call it dead but one could also say it's legacy or feature complete.

I think we never had a legacy port for phpvirtualbox because there are not that many users and upstream is almost dead. It should be enough for now to change the dependencies to vbox-legacy. We can update it when the dust has settled.

As a side note there is also www/phpvirtualbox (which is also maintained by vbox@) which we will need to update to latest git (develop branch) to support vbox 6.1.

Looks like nobody is willing to review this so I grabbed my old and dusty vbox hat. Let me first say thanks a lot for taking this challenge! Upstream says VirtualBox 5.2 is EoL and support ended 2020/07.

The good thing is that it does not need any new tools but it also does not support:

• multiple wireguard interfaces
• allow empty endpoints (which is valid for wireguard)
• add peers at runtime without destroying the interface
