Yes Pierre i read that too, that is why i bring this question also.

Andrea, indeed kbluetooth in extra works, but kbluetooth-svn have some
changes for the new tray in kde 4.3, that's why doesn't build in the
revision that AUR has, but is now fixed, and i18n is on the way.

Maybe there is a new release for kbluetooth next week.
