% apt upgrade --dry-run 
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  linux-headers-6.11.0-19-generic linux-hwe-6.11-headers-6.11.0-19 linux-hwe-6.11-tools-6.11.0-19 linux-image-6.11.0-19-generic linux-modules-6.11.0-19-generic
  linux-modules-extra-6.11.0-19-generic linux-tools-6.11.0-19-generic python3-netifaces
Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.
The following upgrades have been deferred due to phasing:
  grub-common grub-pc grub-pc-bin grub2-common ubuntu-drivers-common
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded.

% lsb_release -c
Codename: noble
<---

Update-manager shows the 4 grub packages, but clicking their check-boxes
does nothing, nor the ones of 'other updates' or 'system components'
(c.f. attached screen-shot).

Relates to LP:2109758.
