Looks like the devs are aware of it: http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2009-September/013363...
(Since most of us can't send emails to that list)
I've been keeping my PKGBUILDs on http://damjan.softver.org.mk/git/arch-bluetooth/ up to date since 2008-12-03. I've also tried to provide meaningful commit messages.
If anyone has been following that tree maybe can comment about it's quality, shortcomings, correctness and its up-to-dateness? What would you change or improve about it? What more would be required from me so that I could be an official maintainer?
Now, on the issue of obexd vs obex-data-server. Both are DBus services that provide OBEX support for different GUI tools. What I don't understand is if: 1) do they offer the same functionality 2) are they interchangeable 3) are the conflicting or can be installed simultaneously
as I can see both have a "Name=org.openobex" in the DBus service file (in /usr/share/dbus-1/services/), is this a problem?
What about the GUI tools ... there's blueman, kdebluetooth, gnome-bluetooth and bluez-gnome (from the bluez developers too) - these are that I know of. Do theese have some requirement on any of the obex services?

Kdebluetooth (kbluetooth now) depends of obex-data-server. I think gnome-bluetooth depends of obexd now. I think functionality is about the same, but obexd is directly updated by bluez group -- Ricardo Hernández ( richerVE ) richerve@archlinux.com.ve
