This bug was fixed in the package bcmwl - 6.20.155.
---------------
bcmwl (6.20.155.
* Drop parsing of src/src/
dropped all useful vendor matches in its pci_device_id struct and now has
a broken modalias. Keep a static debian/
instead which matches on any Broadcom network device (vendor 14E4 class 02
subclass 80). This brings back a proper "Modaliases:" package header.

[ Alberto Milone ]
* New upstream release (LP: #923809).
* Add 0004-Add-
- Make sure the patch can always be applied.
* Add 0005-Add-
- Thanks to Eugene San for the patch (LP: #994255).
* debian/control:
- Drop all the dependencies on the linux-headers.
* debian/
- Always apply all patches (LP: #1020059).
[ Martin Pitt ]
* debian/
- Silence the errors from rmmod about the modules not being
loaded. This is fully expected, and just causes confusion,
as well as autopkgtest failures.
- Mirror the actions of the installed modprobe.d files,
i.e. rmmod the b43 driver and try to modprobe wl, so
that this package works right after installation.
(LP: #1065827)
- Drop duplicate #DEBHELPER# token. It does not currently
expand to anything, but it looks confusing.
* debian/rules, debian/
- Drop parsing of src/src/
upstream version dropped all useful vendor matches in its
pci_device_id struct and now has a broken modalias. Keep
