Wiki is currently broken, doing MIR review here. It's a tiny package
anyway.
- Rationale: enables networking for Broadcom Wifi users, which are a lot.
- Relatively simple wget/debconf wrapper to grab firmware from existing known
location and install it; can also extract it from a MacOS or other driver CD.
- Proven to work for a lot of users.
- Asks debconf question whether to download the firmware, which is justified
in this case IMHO. Has jockey integration for ease of use.
- Simple dependencies, all in main (glibc, wget, debconf)
Approved and promoted.
** Changed in: b43-fwcutter (Ubuntu Hardy)
