Bug description:
  Encountered during Ubuntu Server upgrade from 22.04 to 24.04.
  Run with 'sudo do-release-upgrade -d' on 2024-08-28 at ~ 12:00 UTC.
  I'm aware that there's upcoming point release scheduled for the next 24-48 hours.

  Output from 'lsb_release -rd':
  No LSB modules are available.
  Description:	Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS
  Release:	24.04

  I didn't check 'apt-cache policy ca-certificates' output before
  continuing with the release upgrade, which I think then called 'dpkg
  --configure -a' and the package was then upgraded successfully.

  The 'apt-cache' output after this was:
  ca-certificates:
    Installed: 20240203
    Candidate: 20240203
    Version table:
