Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-firmware-nonfree

The linux-firmware-nonfree package is suggested if I plug in my Terratec Cinergy T USB XE (Rev 1) DVB-Stick, but the installed package does not contain the required firmware (af9005.fw).

Manually grabbing the firmware from http://ventoso.org/luca/af9005/ and copying it into the firmware folder fixes this issue:
$ wget http://ventoso.org/luca/af9005/af9005.fw
$ sudo cp af9005.fw /lib/firmware
