In this case it's possible: if a virtualization "channel" is

we should assume that the user wants the service. This means that
the
"guest additions" rpms should be a) installed by default, b)
enabled
when installed, c) work ootb when running in the right
virtualization
and silently do nothing otherwise.
Essentially, I want to take the same image and boot it in
virtualbox,
kvm, on bare metal, and in a container, and have things just work.

Good luck with that. Since the Virtualbox guest additions are *not*
RPM enabled from their installation CD images, RPM is likely to
interfere with working, more recent installations of VBox drivers
from
the "Guiest Additions" iso image, unless great caution is employed
and
unless someone can convince them to be completely consistent in
installation tools, or to gracefully allow older and newer verson on
the same host.

yes, we need install VirtualBox-guest-additions , which means
VirtualBox will be one Fedora Package and BTW I hope that Fedora use
RPMFusion package or based on that, I have many work there.
And there [1] we got vboxservice.service which have
ConditionVirtualization=|oracle
No worries I do plan to use your package as a starting point and
I will coordinate with you. For now I'm focussed on cleaning up the
kernel module stuff though.

Hans
