Title:
  bcm43xx-fwcutter might as well download firmware even if
  bcm43xx_microcode11.fw exists

Status in “bcm43xx-fwcutter” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bcm43xx-fwcutter

  The postinst script for bcm43xx-fwcutter checks for the existence of
  /lib/firmware/bcm43xx_microcode11.fw and cancels the download if it's
  there. I think it should not check for this file because 1) just
  because that file is there doesn't mean the rest of the firmware is
  there, and 2) there might be a newer firmware available, even if all
  the files were installed and set up properly in the past.
