           Summary: emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions CONFLICTS_INSTALL

I see the various CONFLICTS_INSTALL lines under
<https://www.freshports.org/emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions/#description>

An edge case arose when I (carelessly) tested to tell whether
virtualbox-ose-kmod-legacy was installable on FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p7: 

root@freebsd:~ # pkg info -x virtualbox
virtualbox-ose-additions-6.1.26
virtualbox-ose-kmod-legacy-5.2.44_5
virtualbox-ose-nox11-legacy-5.2.44_6

– careless because the test, in response to
<https://forums.FreeBSD.org/threads/81892/post-529422>, was in a VirtualBox
guest (not on real hardware). 

> … there should probably be a conflict between guest additions 
> and the kernel module. …
