Public bug reported:

Using a Dell Latitude E5400.

Description:    Ubuntu Raring Ringtail (development branch)
Release:        13.04

Recently updaed the bcmwl-kernel-source package to 6.20. At that point,
wifi stopped working, my CPU went to 100% with Networkmanager taking all
of it, sudo did not work (making it extremely difficult to remove the
package). I noticed that when installing the package, Xorg switched me
over to a vterm, where a stack trace was shown.

Downgrading to the

 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu2

package works great.

bcmwl-kernel-source:
  Installed: 5.100.82.112+bdcom-0ubuntu4
  Candidate: 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
     6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu/ raring/restricted amd64 Packages
 *** 5.100.82.112+bdcom-0ubuntu4 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Not sure how I can capture more information to report without network
access.
