Severity: normal
Dear mentors,
I am looking for a sponsor for my package "b43-fwcutter"
* Package name : b43-fwcutter
* Version : 1:019-1
* Upstream Author : Michael Buesch <
m@bues.ch>
* URL :
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43* License : BSD-2-Clause
* Section : utils
It builds those binary packages:
b43-fwcutter - utility for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware
firmware-b43-installer - firmware installer for the b43 driver
firmware-b43legacy-installer - firmware installer for the b43legacy driver
To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL:

dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/b/b43-fwcutter/b43-fwcutter_019-1.dscChanges since the last upload:
New upstream release.
* debian/control
+ Bump Standard Versions 3.9.5 (no changes).
* Add support to check upstream gpg signature.
* debian/copyright
+ Extend copyright holders years
* remove patches
+ merge with upstream
I unfortunately I dont have the hardware to test the package[1], for this reason, I want to know if anyone has a broadcom chipset to test this new version.
If someone wants to adopt it, feel free to do it
