Package: b43-fwcutter
Version: 1:008-1
Severity: normal

When I saw b43-fwcutter among "New packages", I was a bit surprised,
because I knew that I had installed something like that earlier, so I
had a look, and yes, I had installed bcm43xx-fwcutter.

Taking a closer look at b43-fwcutter, I found that the reason aptitude
didn't inform me or installed b43-fwcutter automagically is that it
doesn't say, in any kind of way, that it replaces the older bcm43xx-fwcutter.

Not knowing enough, I'm a bit worried about having two versions of the
same firmware loaders at the same time.  Am I guaranteed to get the
correct firmware into my system?  Will something get seriously messed
up if I decide to remove bcm43xx-fwcutter?

Cheers,
Richard
