I have the same issue. This also affects the normal upgrade process if
this package need to be upgraded between other packages. This lead to
partial install of newer Linux image and rendered the OS non bootable.
Here is the output text from terminal:-
$ sudo apt remove virtualbox-ext-pack
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
