I was wrong here. Package probably should provide both versions of firmware:
3.130.20.0 (for b43legacy)
4.150.10.5 (for b43)

That's exactly what is done by install_bcm43xx_firmware script. It
extracts two versions into two directories:
zajec at linux:~> ls /lib/firmware | grep b43
b43
b43legacy

P.S.
Big thanks for your work, this package is really useful for ppl
without internet via eth0 as they can't run
"install_bcm43xx_firmware"!
