The debconf question is not asked when installing with jockey (-gtk or -kde), so nothing gets downloaded and there are no files in /lib/firmware/b43*.fw.

config.dat has

running dpkg-reconfigure b43-fwcutter lets you chose to download it and then it works fine. Installing b43-fwcutter from adept_batch works fine, so there much be something in the way jockey runs adept_batch (or synaptic) which stops it from asking the debconf question.
