Package: bcm43xx-fwcutter
Version: 1:005-2
Followup-For: Bug #381088

dpkg try to download firmware, without asking anything.
after 437 kb it stop with an error.
since it is very likely that many people have one of the files to retrieve
on their machine (as i do, that use ndiswrapper on a previous version of
kernel) it would be useful:
  a. present a list of url from where to retrieve
  b. allow also to enter a personalize uri
  c. allow also to specify a local file
  d. allow the choice to skip he passage and use fwcutter on the old way.
  this would allow to continue the installation even in caso of transfer
  problems.
