Bug#1050841: [IMPORTANT] Debian images no longer works for GPU driver installation with apt update

Package: apt
Version: 2.2.4
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/apt

Dear Maintainer,

Google's GPU driver installation no longer works for Debian images since 08/23/2023.

Google is using https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/gpus/install-drivers-gpu#installation_scripts to install GPU drivers on Debian images. It executes scripts as https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/compute-gpu-installation/main/linux/install_gpu_driver.py.

Now for the latest images, if running scripts as below:

```
$ apt-cache search linux-headers | grep -i $(uname -r)
$ apt update
$apt install -y linux-headers-5.10.0-24-cloud-amd64 software-properties-common pciutils gcc make dkms
```
After running `apt update`, we find the package linux-headers-5.10.0-24-cloud-amd64 no longer exists, which results in the `apt install linux-headers-5.10.0-24-cloud-amd64` failure.

It seems after the `apt update`, the index somehow no longer points to linux-headers-5.10.0-23-cloud-amd64 and linux-headers-5.10.0-24-cloud-amd64.

I know it would work if we (1) not do `apt update`, or (2) install newer kernel packages.
But for (1), the apt update is required for our other package installations, (2) the kernel package update needs VM rebooting.

It is now blocking our product functionality because we need the GPU driver installation without VM rebooting.

Could you please prioritize the issue and provide some tips or support?

I am using projects/debian-cloud/global/images/debian-11-bullseye-v20230814 with Linux instance-2 5.10.0-24-cloud-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.179-5 (2023-08-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux.

Thanks!
