[Bug 1374126] [NEW] mac is not installing bcmwl even though 3rd party drivers is selected

[Dave Morley]

Public bug reported:

STEPS:
1. install amd64+mac
2. select 3rd party drivers
3. have no wifi or wired connection.

EXPECTED:
I expect the bcmwl driver to be install and wifi working on the installed system

ACTUAL:
Wired network works and you can manually add the wifi driver but it wasn't done by default.
