Bug description:
when installing bcmwl-kernel-source to build wl.ko
package version: 6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu0.2
Expected behavior: kernel module wl.ko loads.
What happened: finit_module returns ENOPKG
My device is: BCM4352 [14e4:43b1] (rev 03)
Happened after latest OS update, downgrading kernel to 164 did not
fix, downgrading package did not work.
secure boot mode is off.

There is a possibility it is a modaliases problem -- 2015 chagelog
states that there was a capitalization problem, but I don't know how
to check this.
