Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

* What led up to the situation?

- Install new virtualbox packages from Sid
- Got error while creating initramfs :

update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.12.27-amd64
libkmod: ERROR: conf_files_filter_out: Directories inside directories are not supported: /etc/modprobe.d/virtualbox-dkms.conf

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?

- The package create the path with the file /etc/modprobe.d/virtualbox- dkms.conf/etc/modprobe.d/virtualbox-dkms.conf
- .conf files have to be in /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf but not in a subfolder
- Also, /etc is for user configurations, not system packages. .conf file have to be installed in /usr/lib/modprobe.d while installed from a package.

- I manualy did : mv /etc/modprobe.d/virtualbox-dkms.conf/virtualbox- dkms.conf /etc/modprobe.d/virtualbox-dkms.conf && rmdir /etc/modprobe.d/virtualbox-dkms.conf
as workaround.

* What was the outcome of this action?

- My action was successful

* What outcome did you expect instead?

- I expect new virtualbox-dkms.conf file installed in /usr/lib/modprobe.d folder
