Package: broadcom-sta-dkms
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Because I recently had trouble with Wifi after an upgrade of package
firmware-b43-installer,
I purged this package and tried to install package broadcom-sta-dkms,
according to the recently updated instruction at https://wiki.debian.org/wl .
Installation uses the package from bullseye/testing not from some backport.

Loading of the wl-module  fails according to the next log:
