Please mention which ISO image you used, or at least which Debian 
version your installed. I assume Debian 12.

Unfortunately the firmware required by this wireless controller cannot 
be packaged in Debian due to license incompatibility.

The bookworm installation image has this package but lacks 
/firmware/dep11/bluez-firmware.*, preventing the installer from 
detecting that this package is useful.

AFAICS BCM2033* files in the package are used by bcm203x and BCM434* 
files are used by btbcm. I could not find which module uses STLC2500* files.

The bcm203x module advertises both firmware and alias fields. However 
the btbcm module advertises neither. Relevant alias fields 
(acpi*:BCM2Exx:*) seem to be in the hci_uart module which depends on btbcm.

Can you please indicate which module is used and which firmware it 
loaded ? The information should be in the kernel log.
