Bug#579633: firmware-b43legacy-installer.postins problem



Package: firmware-b43legacy-installer
Version: 4.178.10.4-3
Severity: important


if if statement in firmware-b43legacy-installer.postins where the list
of supported cards is checked is wrong.

if [ -n "$pci" ]; then
        if [ "`echo $pci | cut -d: -f2`" != "4301" ] || \
           [ "`echo $pci | cut -d: -f2`" != "4306" ] || \
           [ "`echo $pci | cut -d: -f2`" != "4320" ]; then
                echo "Not supported card here (PCI id $pci)!"
                echo "Use b43 firmware. This is just for the b43legacy driver."
                echo "Aborting."
                exit 1
        fi
fi

The OR statement in the if should be AND. Otherwise the firmware for 4306 and 4320 cased cards will not be expanded. The corrected code should be:


if [ -n "$pci" ]; then
        if [ "`echo $pci | cut -d: -f2`" != "4301" ] && \
           [ "`echo $pci | cut -d: -f2`" != "4306" ] && \
           [ "`echo $pci | cut -d: -f2`" != "4320" ]; then
                echo "Not supported card here (PCI id $pci)!"
                echo "Use b43 firmware. This is just for the b43legacy driver."
                echo "Aborting."
                exit 1
        fi
fi
