Re: F27 Self Contained Change: VirtualBox Guest Integration

Slightly late to the party but please have a look at how open-vm-tools
(VMware) works.  Some observations:

(1) Anaconda has a special comps group for hypervisors.  If Anaconda
is able to detect virtualization, it will install extra packages from
the hypervisor group automatically.  For VMware it's called
‘platform-vmware’.

https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/commit/a475dd0194df7abf0453786fc0147221f0e753d3
https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/blob/master/f/comps-f27.xml.in#_4987

(2) In addition to the above, open-vm-tools is protected by
ConditionVirtualization=vmware.  Despite the other comment in this
thread, this works fine and no udev rule is required.

Rich.
