Installed it from the aur, launching vboxgtk I get:
ERROR: vboxapi package not found
You'll have to set the VBOX_PROGRAM_PATH and (possibly) the VBOX_SDK_PATH
environment variables to point to the locations of the VirtualBox
installation directory and VirtualBox SDK directory, respectively. Otherwise
this program will not run.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/vboxgtk", line 92, in <module>
test_import()
File "/usr/bin/vboxgtk", line 85, in test_import
raise ex
ImportError: No module named vboxap
I wonder where I should set the VBOX_PROGRAM_PATH variable.

They're environment variables, set them in .profile or similar. Google will show you a list of places, and their relative merits/uses.

well, actually I googled quite a lot, and couldn't find anything similar to a manual or description about vboxgtk, not even is the sourceforge project site.

I have no idea what vboxgtk is, but I was referring to googling about environment variables, since that's your main question.

install virtualbox-sdk
Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

thanks, after installing the virtualbox-sdk I get this error:

AttributeError: XPCOM component '<unknown>' has no attribute 'maxVDISize'
there is a pyxpcom packagage in the aur, is this related?
maybe this vboxgtk is too broken...

Use vboxgtk-svn, it works fine here.

I get the same error regarding the xpcom module with the svn too.
seems like the latest update solved the problem.
