testing migrations

This package will soon be part of the auto-libxml2 transition. You might want to ensure that your package is ready for it. You can probably find supplementary information in the debian-release archives or in the corresponding release.debian.org bug.
excuses:
- Migration status for virtualbox (- to 7.0.26-dfsg-1): BLOCKED: Rejected/violates migration policy/introduces a regression
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Updating virtualbox would introduce bugs in testing: #794466
- ∙ ∙ blocked by freeze: is not in testing
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 1 of 10 days old
- Additional info:
- ∙ ∙ Cannot be tested by piuparts (not a blocker) - (no link yet)
- ∙ ∙ autopkgtest for virtualbox/7.0.26-dfsg-1: amd64: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻, i386: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻
- Not considered
