YubiKey & GPG on Ubuntu 24.04

My YubiKeys stopped working with GnuPG (PGP) after a release upgrade from Ubuntu 22.04 (focal) to Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) on my device(s):

gpg --card-status
gpg: selecting card failed: No such device
gpg: OpenPGP card not available: No such device

GnuPG device error on Ubuntu 24.04 with attached YubiKey

GnuPG did not detect the attached YubiKey after the release upgrade. Similar issues have been reported on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu.
