Title:
  bcmwl-kernel-source 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu0.0.1: bcmwl kernel module
  failed to build

Status in “bcmwl” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am using a new Lenovo E431 laptop, with wireless upgraded to "ThinkPad a/b/g/n Wireless & Bluetooth 4.0 (2x2 ABGN & BT 4.0)".
  I installed ubuntu 12.04, and upgraded kernel to 3.8.0-30.

  My machine details:
  $ uname -arn
  Linux ubuntu 3.8.0-30-generic #44~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 23 18:32:41 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  After upgrading, when I tried to install wireless driver, I am not able to install it.
  Looks like kernel sources have changed, and drive module is failing to build because of that.
