Hello ,
Can you take a look on this patch: https://github.com/rpmfusion/Virtual
Box/blob/master/VirtualBox-5.0.22-guest_soname.patch
Not using this patch makes VirtualBox-guest-additions provides
/usr/lib64/VBoxOGL.so
"both EGL and GL are replaced, the name of the path name doesn't count,
only the internal soname count (readelf -a /usr/lib64/VBoxEGL.so |grep
SONAME)"
"for now we can't provide this package, you will need to filter theses
dependencies and make sure they will confict with other libgl providers
(such as nvidia) "
So I made this patch , any feedback is welcome
I hate to say it, but before you make a patch simply removing lines,
might it not make sense to ask why they are there in the first place?
In this case, for X11 guest 3D to work those libraries have to replace
libGL.so.1 and libEGL.so.1 respectively, which is why they need to have
those sonames. I presume that NVIDIA do the same, but of course our
libraries and NVIDIA's should never be in use at the same time, nor ours
and Mesa.
I don't know if you have some particular way of handling this in Fedora;
there might even be a better way of handling it for us, but just
removing those lines is going to stop guest 3D acceleration from
working. How and in what environment did you actually test this patch?

Michael
