Package: firmware-b43-installer Version: 1:015-14 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
After installing Debian Wheezy on my notebook, I tried to activate my wireless network. As dmesg said, it was not running due to missing firmware. So I installed the firmware-b43-installer package, which generated this output (shortened): b43-fwcutter (1:015-14) wird eingerichtet ... firmware-b43-installer (1:015-14) wird eingerichtet ... No chroot environment found. Starting normal installation The firmware was not downloaded, even it said "starting normal installation". On this notebook there are two Broadcom-Cards: 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5751M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 11) 04:02.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) The output of # lspci -n | grep -o "14e4:[1234567890abcdef]\+" 14e4:167d 14e4:4318 seems to stop the postinst-script, ending up in doing nothing. It would be of great use, if the package would do its job in such a hardware environment. I wrote this Bug-Report for a member of the "debianforum.de", to make good software even better.
