Details please,

e.g. the output of the commands

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
sudo dpkg --audit

Which virtualbox version (exact file name) are you trying to install, which command are you using, what is the full and unedited output that you receive for that attempt?

apt-cache policy `dpkg -l | grep -i virtualbox | awk {'print $2'}`

Never mind Went back to 18.04 . . 20.04 is a bit early for Prime time to many things did not run right even the Almanah Diary is screwed up . . will not import old information so 6 years of info would have been un use able and the Newer Program will not even save or Export the days to a file . .A lot of things did not work in the 20.04 version even after Updates Have almost got 1.04 back up to being running with all programs working
