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).
