Unbelievable: It's working! Thanks!

Those scripts are part of the ubuntu "bluez"-package with a little
change in naming them: There is always a "bluez-" in front of it.

simple-agent -> bluez-simple-agent
test-device -> bluez-test-device

So no need to download them.
I must confess, I was sceptical at first, because I already tried
bluez-simple-agent without success. I guess I was lucky to have the
right combination of packages installed, now - got to figure out, why it
didn't work last time!

Well, then: I'll spread the word!
Thanks again!

Bye!
