Other commenters, please confirm what kernel version you are seeing this
behavior with.  If this is not reproducible with either the linux-
generic 3.13 kernel or the linux-lts-xenial 4.4 kernel, then it is not
going to be fixed.

Note also that Ubuntu 14.04 has reached the end of standard support, so
in addition to the other *-lts-* kernels being out of security support
for a long time already, the rest of your system is also out of security
support unless you have ESM enabled.

  modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wl': Package not installed

Bug description:
  when installing bcmwl-kernel-source to build wl.ko

  package version: 6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu0.2

  Expected behavior: kernel module wl.ko loads.
  What happened: finit_module returns ENOPKG

  
  My device is: BCM4352 [14e4:43b1] (rev 03)

  Happened after latest OS update, downgrading kernel to 164 did not
  fix, downgrading package did not work.

  secure boot mode is off.

  A few others are having this issue
  https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2413303

  There is a possibility it is a modaliases problem -- 2015 chagelog
  states that there was a capitalization problem, but I don't know how
  to check this.
