[Bug 72033] Re: Install gnome-bluetooth by default to enable receiving files via bluetooth

[Uphaar Agrawalla]

Changed the summary and description, and set the status to New. This
issue is present in Gutsy.

** Summary changed:

- Can't transfer files from mobile to pc via Bluetooth in Gnome
+ Install gnome-bluetooth by default to enable receiving files via bluetooth

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth
+ Receiving files via bluetooth doesn't work unless gnome-obex-server is
+ running, which is provided by the gnome-bluetooth package. This package
+ itself is in Universe. The package should be promoted to main, and
+ installed by default (atleast if bluetooth hardware is detected, as
+ suggested in bug 120865).
  
- Referring to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth/TestPlan
+ Also, whenever bluetooth is enabled (as when pressing the bluetooth
+ button on the laptop), gnome-obex-server should be run automatically so
+ that file receiving can work seamlessly.
  
- Tried to send an image from mobile to pc, the transfer stucks at 0% and
- then fails. No file transfered. This occurs only with Gnome, with KDE
- all works perfectly in the two directions.
  
- - Mobile model: Samsung Z140-V
- - Laptop: Asus M6Ne
- - Dongle model: D-Link DBT-120 (from lsusb command: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode))
+ Currently, a user has to enable Universe, install gnome-bluetooth and then every time run gnome-obex-server (Accessories > Bluetooth File Sharing) before they can receive files. These steps can be eliminated for a smoother experience.

** Changed in: gnome-bluetooth (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New
