I would like to know the status of bluez in testing at this moment. GNOME 2.24.0 depends on the testing bluez-libs at this moment, I would like to move both at the same time.
I lost track of this project, as they're not my packages. Any rebuilds pending? Any patches we need to apply?
bluez needs an update, which I have no time for. Many applications need to be patched to use the new bluez API, which I have no time for. I'd like to orphan bluez completely and let someone else take care of it, as I can't keep up with it. Anyone interested?
Hi all,
In the interest of getting this moving and improving Arch, I will gladly help someone to get Bluez moved into [core]. I have attempted to update the necessary packages (attached). Also, I noticed voidnull (Giovanni Scafora) has two bluez related packages in [community] and might be a good person to ask questions to.
bluez.PKGBUILD bluez-firmware.PKGBUILD bluez-gnome.PKGBUILD bluez-hcidump.PKGBUILD
## Notes: Thomas has limited time, some rebuilds will be necessary - http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2008-September/008251.html Red Hat should have patches if needed - http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2008-September/008252.html

Is anyone going to attempt this rebuild? This is holding up gnome which is holding up python which means I can't slack of at work doing rebuilds... I will do these if necessary but I have no way of testing any of these packages so it would be better if someone else did this.
I would say just do it. I don't think any of us regularly use bluetooth.

Same here. I do not have a way to test it.

I have no experience with the bluez stuff, but I do have bluetooth capability on my notebook and WinMo phone. I would be happy to test out any packages if we have a criteria to test against.
Oh hey! My phone supports bluetooth too. I wonder what it'd take to have it talk to my laptop...
Just to re-iterate I will help out whoever grabs the reins here. Attached are some slightly updated PKGBUILDs. Bluez has moved onto v4.14:- 16th October 2008, 10:30 pm "This release fixes some issues with the adapter driver handling and a potential crash with input devices. It also makes sure that the property types of arrays are correct and the Sony PlayStation3 remote control should now work again." bluez.PKGBUILD bluez-firmware.PKGBUILD bluez-gnome.PKGBUILD bluez-hcidump.PKGBUILD python-pybluez.PKGBUILD
