MacBook Pro 11,2
Broadcom 4360

1.) Installing the current build "Apricity OS 09.2016 Aspen - Gnome, x86_64" from Live USB went fine.
No issues with Mac hardware found.

2.) Softwre Update notifies about availabe updates (incl. linux, linux-headers...)

3.) After updating linux to 4.8.6-1 wifi can't find any networks.

I'm running Apricity for the 1st time and found this same issue on my Dell Latitude E4300. Broadcom Wireless drivers are universal issue across Linux distros, so I was already watching what was going on during the 1st upgrade. Turns out that 'broadcom-wl' is replaced by 'broadcom-wl-dkms'.

The fix me at least: I connected using an ethernet cable and ran yaourt -S broadcom-wl

Thanks.

Is there any way to roll back to the old kernel in case your fix won't work?

I've read some comments that state rolling back could destabilize the system.
