Failed upgrading your HWE kernel to 6.17 because of broadcom-sta-dkms?

TL;DR

cd /tmp
wget https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/b/broadcom-sta/broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-23ubuntu1.2_all.deb
sudo apt install ./broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-23ubuntu1.2_all.deb

Kernel version incompatibility is a common headache for DKMS packages. Fortunately, it has been fixed for kernel 6.17 in noble-proposed.
