Description

I downloaded the package for Ubuntu 16.04 from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.1.28/virtualbox-5.1_5.1.28-117968~Ubuntu~xenial_amd64.deb

By double-clicking on it it opens with Ubuntu Software Whatever, an "install" button shows up. That doesn't work, it just shows a progress bar for a fraction of a second and then the button appears again, it does nothing, gives no error message. But that probably is a bug in Ubuntu.

So in a terminal I did:

$ sudo apt install ./virtualbox-5.1_5.1.28-117968-Ubuntu-xenial_amd64.deb

And this is the output:
