Will, the problem here is that we do not have permission to distribute that
firmware without it being "in conjunction with the BlueZ GPLd tools". Putting
that firmware in a separate "bluez-firmware" package would violate that
license, thus, it is not freely redistributable. We need permission from
Broadcom to be able to distribute this firmware without any sort of "bundling"
restrictions.
