Title:
Promote to restricted: broadcom-sta & bcmwl are duplicates
Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in broadcom-sta package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Ubuntu archive please promote broadcom-sta from multiverse to
restricted.
After that's done and migrates, we will be able to remove bcmwl from
the archive.

broadcom-sta & bcmwl are duplicates of each other.
One is packaged and maintained by archlinux/debian the other one was
our self packaged one.
We should merge the two.
On the surface the source code is the same, there is slightly better
dkms packaging on the broadcom-sta package. However it is missing
modaliases stanzas.
I think we should port the modaliases to the new package, and remove
the old one.
