Public bug reported:

When installing Kubuntu 20.04 in a virtual machine, although it has the
6.1.6 version of Guest Additions, shared clipboard does not work.

It happens the same as it's described in [VBoxClient --clipboard
terminates silently](https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/19234):

    $ VBoxClient -v --clipboard -f   # Or `VBoxClient --clipboard -d`
    Shared Clipboard: Starting X11 event thread
    Shared Clipboard: Stopping X11 event thread ...
    Shared Clipboard: X11 event thread terminated successfully
    Error connecting to host service, rc=VERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED
    Service terminated abnormally with VERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED
    Running service failed: VERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED

    Previously reported at 
<https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=946843> 
    and <https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=96309>

Although that bug was reported for the 6.1.2 version of Guest Additions, the 
6.1.6 version in the virtual machine does not solve the bug. The effects are 
the same using:
- the `dkms`, `virtualbox-guest-x11` and `virtualbox-guest-dkms` packages (and 
rebooting),
- or `sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run` from the 
https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/6.1.6/VBoxGuestAdditions_6.1.6.iso 
file (and rebooting),
- or `sudo ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run` from the 
https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/6.1.2/VBoxGuestAdditions_6.1.2.iso 
file (and rebooting).

Thank you!
