[Bluez-users] Debian packages updated

[Bluez-users] Debian packages updated

[Edd Dumbill]

I uploaded new experimental packages for BlueZ 2.7 to Debian
experimental (expect them there in a week or so, as bluez-cups is NEW),
and to the http://bluez.sf.net/download/debian/ repository.  This build
has DBUS and CUPS enabled.  More details are available in the
README.Debian file in the bluez-utils package.

Fuller details available on my blog at
http://usefulinc.com/edd/blog/contents/2004/05/26-bluez/read

I'd welcome feedback from users of the older packages, particularly in
how the 2.4 -> 2.7 upgrade goes, as the bluez-pan and bluez-sdp packages
have all been subsumed into bluez-utils.

may you wanna add fixes for two of my stupid mistakes :(

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/bluez/libs/include/hci.h?r1=1.35&r2=1.36
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/bluez/utils/hidd/main.c?r1=1.3&r2=1.4

Please test these packages and give Edd feedback, so they can move very
soon to unstable.

Regards

Marcel

Hi Edd,

first thx for the new pkgs.  Update from 2.6 went smooth
(beside the artefacts of updating testing with bluez.sf.net
pkgs ;)

First impressions:

I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the /etc/init.d/bluez-pan merge into
/etc/init.d/bluez-utils.  Before I could remove the rcX.d links
and let hotplug and/or script call bluez-pan as needed.
I only switch on the bluetooth adapter when needed.  Ditto with pand.
Now I did get lots of useless entries in syslog of pan trying to find
the (nonexisting) NAP ;)

Output of restart of the init.d script is a bit strange:
	Restarting bluez-utils: hidd hcid sdpd hidd rfcomm
hidd entry appears twice (same for pund and dund when enabled)

My M$ bt mouse didn't arrive yet, but I would expect that hidd
adds an SDP record (kdebluetooth didn't show it; running debian
kernel-source 2.6.6 + mh2).  Maybe the mouse will work without
an SDP record.  Nevertheless IMHO a SDP record tells more
to Joe User than a ps | grep ;)

thx again for the pkgs!

  You discover truth everytime you use it.
