Package: linux-wlan-ng
Version: 0.2.9+dfsg-4
Severity: wishlist

In the Description we read:

    Please note that you probably do not need this package: The prism2_usb 
driver
    is included in the default kernel packages since 2.6.31. If you need 
firmware
    loading for your prism2_usb device, please just install the
    prism2-usb-firmware-installer package.

However in /usr/share/doc/linux-wlan-ng-doc/FAQ.gz we read

                1) USB support
        (1) Is the only truly unique thing that linux-wlan-ng does that
        is generally needed any more.

And indeed, prism2-usb-firmware-installer does not ALWAYS help, (as nor
perhaps does linux-wlan-ng perhaps either.)

In the Description we also read:

    This package ships legacy utilities and scripts for advanced configuration 
and
    user-space firmware downloading (support for non-USB devices).

However, PRISM2DL=/sbin/prism2dl mentioned on /etc/wlan/shared.prism2
does not exist.
