Kernel 6.8.11-amd64 Headers not being able to install [migrated]

I am not able to install the linux-headers-6.8.11-amd64 kernel even after repeated trying. I tried several methods - apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, apt-get dist-upgrade dkms --configure linux-headers-amd64 apt-get install linux-headers-amd64; but to no avail. In addition, the error the terminal shows is:

dpkg: error processing package linux-headers-6.8.11-amd64 (--configure):
installed linux-headers-6.8.11-amd64 package post-installation 
script subprocess returned error exit status 11
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-headers-amd64:
linux-headers-amd64 depends on linux-headers-6.8.11-amd64 
(=   6.8.11-1kali2); however:
Package linux-headers-6.8.11-amd64 is not configured yet.

dkms: autoinstall for kernel: 6.8.11-rt-amd64 failed!

From the errors, I feel the driver rtl8188fu is the one that creates trouble. But, it is the driver for the wifi adapter for my PC, and deleting it would mean no internet for me. So, how should I proceed. For information, I currently have linux-header uname -a version as 6.6.9. Rebooting will log me to the latest version Kali Linux 6.8.11, but without wifi drivers. Any hints?
