OK, quick search through apt-file(1) indicates that this file is
included in the linux-header package(s).  It seems there's an ordering
issue with dpkg doing package configuration for the kernel itself, and
handing off the wifi driver compilation to dkms.

Are you able to get online with something other than this broadcom wifi
card that is causing the error?  If so, I would do this:

  1. Remove the broadcom package
  2. Update / install the new kernel and headers, etc. (and reboot)
  3. Reinstall the Broadcome package

If that's not possible, then hold off on the kernel upgrade until you
have a way to get online (e.g. USB ethernet dongle).
