Hello,

first at all thanks very much for runMojaveVirtualbox!

It would be great, if you could help me, please.

The log says:

[2018-10-08 21:03:29] Running checks (around 1 second)... [2018-10-08 21:03:30] . [2018-10-08 21:03:30] Opening GUI... [2018-10-08 21:03:30] 'xz' not installed.

What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks a lot for helping me. steffterra from Germany

You’ve to install the command line tool 'xz'. I suggest to use http://brew.sh for this.

I had the same problem, installing Home brew was the solution.
