Bug Description

bluez-firmware is in sync-blacklist, but also repackaged in snappy-dev PPA and installed in pi-kernel snaps.

Some of the firmware files shipped in bluez-firmware are not present in neither src:linux-firmware nor src:linux-firmware-raspi

It seems like it is an oversight, and we should sync bluez-firmware from Debian.

$ syncpackage bluez-firmware
Source package bluez-firmware is blacklisted.
If this package needs a fakesync, use --fakesync
If you think this package shouldn't be blacklisted, please file a bug
explaining your reasoning and subscribe ~ubuntu-archive.
Blacklist Comments:
  From sync-blacklist.txt:
  # benc: we do our own kernel
  bluez-firmware

Missing in ubuntu:
BCM2033-FW.bin
BCM2033-MD.hex
STLC2500_R4_00_03.ptc
STLC2500_R4_00_06.ssf
STLC2500_R4_02_02_WLAN.ssf
STLC2500_R4_02_04.ptc

Available in linux-firmware-raspi2 (conflicting):
BCM43430A1.hcd
BCM43430B0.hcd
BCM4345C0.hcd
BCM4345C5.hcd

Alternative to syncing bluez-firmware, is to ship missing in ubuntu files in linux-firmware, but that would not be in line with what we do for many other firmware packages which are easier to update when they are stand alone.

Would this package need to be in main? If so it would need a team subscribed to its bug reports.
