and starting from bluetooth.agent makes the agent script slower. It can
introduce race conditions.

If people plan to install Bluetooth, but don't plan to use it, we can
have a /etc/default/bluetooth option for deactivating hcid and co at
startup.

You won't believe it, but on my productiv systems I try to only have
applications installed that I or the system itself uses. I believe in
the way, that a minimal system is enough and if I need some other
software I install them. The Debian way with apt-get is the best I've
ever seen. I manage some system that I haven't reinstalled for over 5
years and they are as clean as I setup them.

However the bad guy is my development system, because I need hundreds of
development packages, extra tools etc. ;)

Regards

Marcel
