Re: fedora 25
If I'm not mistaken, Fedora 25 will not be out for a week (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/25/Schedule). I wouldn't expect it any time sooner. I wouldn't expect it any sooner than the 5.1.10 release either.
But, that's just me. As time and time again in the past, the developers never announce their plans. Did you try the generic installer and it didn't work?

Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.

...but, Oracle provides VB rpm's for fedora 25 already !
-they are the same as for fedora 24 -
But they don't install without some work (building an rpm package).
Did you run in the VB install problem regarding libvpx.so.3 ?
search VB Bugzilla ticket:16038 OR google search: compat-libvpx-1.5.0-1.fc26.src
I'm unable to post the links here for now (membership limitation)
I wrote comment 6 in that ticket !
Kudos to Sandro Mani !

Re: fedora 25
I got the source rpm from rpmfusion. Version 5.1.6, I believe. I tried to build it from that,
but ran into a syntax error like so:
from /home/bernd/rpmbuild/BUILD/VirtualBox-5.1.6/src/VBox/Additions/x11/vboxvideo/getmode.c:18:
/usr/include/xorg/os.h:708:32: error: unknown type name 'sigset_t'
xthread_sigmask(int how, const sigset_t *set, sigset_t *oldest);
^~~~~~~~
/usr/include/xorg/os.h:708:47: error: unknown type name 'sigset_t'
xthread_sigmask(int how, const sigset_t *set, sigset_t *oldest);
Perhaps this is because some dependency is not explicit enough in the source rpm? Certainly signal.h is there
on my system.
