Summary	0008938: upgrade breaks os(virtualbox, kernel6.10)
Description	virtualbox only supports up to kernel 6.9, i had it installed. i went to apt upgrade, virtualbox package didn't use a breaks: to prevent apt from installing kernel 6.10, so when it went to build the dkms kernel module it just failed and left me with an unbootable system, i was able to boot to an earlier kernel from grub, uninstall virtualbox since i no longer used it, and reinstall 6.10.
