Description:

gnome-control-center PKGBUILD details gnome-user-share optdepend as providing "Bluetooth and WebDAV file sharing"[1]. However,

1) gnome-user-share upstream doesn't make any mention of Bluetooth[2],
2) the package itself doesn't provide any file relating to bluetooth nor depends on a bluetooth-related package[3],
3) upstream NEWS file contains an item for version 3.14.2 saying "Remove ObexPush support, it's now available directly in the gnome-bluetooth Settings widget"[4] and version 3.14 "Don't talk of "sharing over Bluetooth" since ObexFTP support was removed"[5].

So as not to lead users thinking this package is required for bluetooth sharing support, I'd suggest simply removing the mention of Bluetooth in the optdepend description.

Thanks

Additional info:
* package version(s): 3.36.3-1

Steps to reproduce:
- install gnome group
- remove gnome-user-share
- try to share a file via Bluetooth
- should work all right (though bluetooth itself is pretty finicky)
This task depends upon
