** Description changed:
Binary package hint: bluez-utils
- As discussed in IRC, BlueZ 4.x may resolve regressions that are seen in the 3.x stack on Intrepid.
+ As discussed in IRC on #ubuntu-motu, BlueZ 4.x resolves regressions that are seen in the 3.x stack on Intrepid.
* Particularly, keyboards aren't able to pair in the UI.
+ - The combination of bluez-utils 3.36 and the btusb kernel module seems to be causing problems when pairing bluetooth keyboards.
* Broken services tab (completely gone in 4.x)
+ - This is fixed in bluez-gnome 0.28 or anything later. However you need to switch to a package in the 4.x series when using the bluez 4.x stack.
+
+ Additionally, the bluez stack's usability is improved in the 4.x version.
* Usability - there is a pairing wizard with 4.x which is ages beyond what was in 3.x
+
Test packages will be provided in a PPA.
