Today's upgrade to kernel 6.12.16 in unstable fails because dkms fails to build anything! I have no idea what could it be, I just wanted to mention it early so that others can check. Right now, I only have dkms for virtualbox and broadcom-sta and they both fail with these bits in apt's output and these in their logs.

I had to remove both the kernel and the headers for 6.12.16 to make apt work again. This also removed linux-image-amd64 and linux-headers-amd64, but I can stay with 6.12.15 as long as it works.
Code:
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 6.12.16-amd64 (x86_64)Consult /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/7.0.20/build/make.log for more information....Error!
