Bug description:
  Binary package hint: b43-fwcutter

  /usr/share/b43-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh fails to download
  firmware and returns an error if the machine is behind a proxy. This
  causes the postinst script of the package return an error, which
  paralyzes dpkg (it refuses to unstall/upgrade/remove/etc any
  packages).

  The script should honor the global GNOME proxy settings to operate
  normally.

  Apport postinst script crash info is attached.
