[Bug 1922792] Re: Bluez should notify users when they need to reboot to apply changes on Raspberry Pi

[William Wilson]

Seb,

A reboot is needed in this case because the bluetooth device on the
raspberry pi has to be initialized at boot time. Restarting the service
will not cause the device to be brought up.

The hardcoded addresses are the approach used in the pi-bluetooth
package, and recommended by waveform.

As for the description, I could certainly change that to be more
descriptive. This code would want to run on a fresh install of bluez, as
the bluetooth device would not be initialized if the pi had been booted
without bluez installed.
