Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: b43-fwcutter

I have Intrepid (x64) operating and want to update to Jaunty... After
long time of downloading packages and waiting for configure, the
installation process is in a LOOP, due to a fail of package
b43-fwcutter.

I found the same problem when I reinstalled manually the package, and
has VERY EASY SOLUTION.

This package downloads firmware for my wifi (broadcom, HP) from
openwrt.org... Exactly the file it try to download is:

http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2

However, THIS URL doesn't exists. Looking for the file in the domain I
found that the correct URL is:

http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2

The correct URL has to be written into the download script named
install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh, inside the package.

Greetings from Córdoba, Spain.

Bad reference to firmware's URL causes loop that avoid ubuntu update!
