as you see, it was moved to bluez. I guess we need to expect a new version soon

in fact it should be available in the version released but our bluez is poorly packaged.

Hmm... Thanks for your report. It was moved to bluez upstream.

However, it was not include in our bluez package (this is my fault). I requested the old udev rules to be disabled from bluez (they create problems), but now that the hid2hci rule was moved to bluez this is also disabled by the same config switch. This we don't want.

In ideal situation would be to just disable the rule that enables autostart of bluez from udev, but to enable everything else. I don't know what is the best way to achieve this. Andrea?

[Actually, the best way would be to submit a patch upstream, as the autostart from udev is never the right thing to do.]

@Ioni, please next time check our logs:

@Tom,
I think that's the right way: enable everything and remove the rule which autostart bluez from udev.

@Andrea: I think you are right. (I have on my ever-growing TODO to poke upstream about this, but I don't know if I'll ever get to it ;-) )

re-added in bluez 4.93-2
