Error: nothing provides libvpx.so.3()(64bit) on Fedora 25

[lverissimo]

I am unable to install Virtualbox 5.1-5.1_6 on Fedora 25. libvpx.so.3 is no longer available by libvpx.so.4. Please update your package.

To add a little more detail, Fedora 25 upgrades package libvpx-1.5.0-4.fc24.x86_64 -> libvpx-1.6.0-1.fc25.x86_64 which bumps library version to libvpx.so.4. As upgrading from 24 to 25 gives following:

Error: Package: VirtualBox-5.1-5.1.6_110634_fedora24-1.x86_64 (installed)
           Requires: libvpx.so.3()(64bit)
           Removing: libvpx-1.5.0-4.fc24.x86_64 (installed)
               libvpx.so.3()(64bit)
           Updated By: libvpx-1.6.0-1.fc25.x86_64 (fedora)
              ~libvpx.so.4()(64bit)

an attempted rpm install on a fedora 25 system:

dnf install ./VirtualBox-5.1-5.1.6_110634_fedora24-1.x86_64.rpm Error: nothing provides libvpx.so.3()(64bit) needed by VirtualBox-5.1-5.1.6_110634_fedora24-1.x86_64 (try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages)

Trying to install VirtualBox on Fedora 25 Release Candidate 2, I still encounter this problem with libvpx.so.3()

Fedora 25 Release is now scheduled for november 22 and it will be mandatory to be able to test VirtualBox on this release before this date.

We will provide Fedora 25 packages with the next 5.1.x maintenance release.
