WordPress on VirtualBox – no pretty permalinks

… and as per usual, I figure it out as soon as I post the question -.-

Using this answer, I changed apache2.conf under /etc/apache2/.

There is a section towards the bottom talking about the security model. The section Directory /var/www/ needs to be changed from AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All.

I restarted apache and it works.
