[Bug 1382882] [NEW] Package linux-firmware-nonfree:i386 is missing the b43 firmware

 

Public bug reported:

The 64 bit version of linux-firmware-nonfree contains the b43
(Broadcom wireless firmware) files, but they are missing
in the 32 bit version of this package.  Doing a 14.04.1 Ubuntu
install on a 32 bit system resulted in a non-function Broadcom
wireless (4311) after installing the linux-firmware-nonfree
package.  Investigation showed that the /lib/firmware/b43
directory was entirely absent, and checking the package showed
the b43 files were absent there also.  The b43 firmware files
should be the same ones in the amd64 version of the package.

** Affects: linux-firmware-nonfree (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
