Bug#980205: #980205 installation missing "non free" drivers.

Cross-posted to 2 groups.

I no longer have the (damaged and useless) installation attempt
that led to this report.   I recall that when I succeeded in
supplying brcmfmac43340-sdio.bin, the next installation attempt
presented the same type of error message, asking for brcmfmac43340-sdio.txt

I found a file with that name on github, and there was some evidence
that it worked.  I believe it's attacked to the bug report thread.
