Bug Description

Binary package hint: kernel-wedge

Bug #494052 was caused by the firmware filename for the bnx2 driver changing, and the kernel build not catching this to make sure the right filename was copied to the udeb. This is preventable by having kernel-wedge automatically pull in the firmware dependencies (shown in output of modinfo -F firmware $modname), not just .ko dependencies.
