the firmware files are in the wrong place. You are using the old
directory. They must be under /lib/firmware/.
Actually I would prefer to have bluez-bcm203x and bluez-firmware,
because I try to get the AVM and 3Com firmware also into this package.
This also avoids that people install bluez-bcm203x for their 2.6 kernel
even if they don't need it. The naming leads to that.
And btw what does it take to get a virtual packages called bluez that
installs all the needed BlueZ packages?
Regards
Marcel
