just changing bluez-libs to bluez in the PKGBUILD worked for me.

I installed obexftp, which is in extra and takes its dependencies bluez and obexftp from testing. Trying to run obexftp ends with

$ obexftp
obexftp: error while loading shared libraries: libbluetooth.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

We really need some additional packages in testing! I tried to recompile pilot-link, claws-mail and claws-mail-extra-plugins and obexftp and it worked well.

Is bluez-libs supposed to provide bluez, or is it just being phased out?
If it's on its way out, can the following packages simply be changed to require bluez?

# gnokii
# gvfs
# obex-data-server
# openobex
# pilot-link

$ sudo pacman -S gnome-bluetooth

As with the other comments, compiling pilot-link against bluez worked fine for me. If bluez is the way to go in the future, could bluez-lib provide bluez and dependent packages require bluez,to prevent the issue when bluez-lib goes and recent testing packages find thier way into current? Seems like an easy way to avoid a mass 'special' upgrade.

pilot-link recompilation is not only needed because of dependencies but also because pilot-link requires libbluetooth.so.3 but the new bluez package provides libbluetooth.so.4.
