Hopefully not anymore , RPMFusion is ready for F25 and rawhide now .

this worked flawlessly (The only additional thing I had to do was to

Tank you very much.

Hi Sergio,

i switched from Rpmfusion to Unitedrpms because Rpmfusion always laggs 
behind new Fedora versions, so  ready-for-use packages are missing for a 
longer time period after a new Fedora appears. Unitedrpms seems to be 
faster.

Re: Trying to install the F24 version of VirtualBox-5.1-5.1.6 in F25

[Jacob Godyn]

Hi,

In changelog of libvpx we can read :
- Upgrading:
This release is ABI incompatible with 1.5.0 due to a new 'color_range' enum
in vpx_image and some minor changes to the VP8_COMP structure.
The default key frame interval for VP9 has changed from 128 to .
source : https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx/+/master/CHANGELOG

So you can't create a symbolic link from libvpx.so.3 to libvpx.so.4, you
need try to rebuild the library.

Kind regards

I have not tried to install it  But the answer is 
libvpx-1.5.0-4.fc24.x86_64 in F24
provides /usr/lib/libvpx.so.3 while in F25 libvpx-1.6.0-1.fc25.x86_64.rpm is 
the new
package which provides the newer version /usr/lib/libvpx.so.4.

So, I guess you can try to download the source and try to rebuild it yourself 
for the F25
environment.  :-)

That's happening because there is no libvpx.so.3 in F25, obviously.

It looks like F25 has gone from libvpx-1.5.0 (libvpx.so.3) to libvpx-1.6.0
(libvpx.so.4).

Creating a symlink from /usr/lib64/libvpx.so.3 to /usr/lib64/libvpx.so.4.0.0
might work (if the library api has not changed, or at least the calls needed
have not changed, but there might be symbol naming problems as well).

But really what you need is a VirtualBox package built against the new version,
libvpx-1.6.0.

Alternately you could build the source package of libvpx-1.5.0 on F25, remove
libvpx-1.6.0, and then install the libvpx-1.5.0 and make sure to exclude that
package when updating.

But there are probably other package dependencies requiring libvpx-1.6.0 so it
will quickly get tedious building (and rebuilding) dependencies and excluding
those from updates too.
