You're facing an installation issue with VirtualBox. The error suggests compatibility problems, possibly due to outdated or unstable packages. Consider checking your system's package list and updating it before proceeding. If needed, try installing from a different source or use a more recent version of the package manager.

You set up the open-source edition of VirtualBox via apt install virtualbox. If you need a version other than the one in the repository, download it from Oracle's website at https://www.virtualbox.org/ and then read the instructions provided at https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch02.html.

This indicates missing dependencies. The error you mentioned details all required packages. Make sure to install them before setting up VirtualBox. Using the Debian repositories is simpler and avoids issues with the open-source version's limitations. You can search for the appropriate package there.

You saved the deb file directly instead of using apt-get to download it.
