Package: firmware-b43-installer
Version: 1:015-14
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

After Installing firmware-b43-installer 1:015-14 and rebooting, I could no
longer connect to wireless networks.
The kernel was repeatedly logging this warning (only the first is included):

Extracting the firmware from version 5.10.56.27.3_mipsel (as referenced in
1:015-13) and rebooting solved the problem.
