[Bug 1094522] [NEW] bluetooth-wizard crashes when selecting a device

[moma]

Public bug reported:

Hello,
I tried to pair my HTC-hero (android) phone with my Ubuntu 12.10 laptop. Ubuntu correctly displays the bluetooth applet where I start the "bluetooth-wizard" dialog.

See picture: http://bildr.no/view/1354477

The dialog crashes immediately when I select the HTC-hero device. I
think the "bluez" library detects the phone twice, but the Name" field
is NULL or empty for the first entry, therefore the dialog seq-faults.

$ bluetooth-wizard
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Bluez-test-discovery command reports the "HTC hero" device twice. 
Notice: The first entry is missing "Name =".

$ bluez-test-discovery 
[ 00:41:A5:AA:88:71 ]
    Paired = 0
    LegacyPairing = 0
    Alias = 00-22-A5-AA-91-71
    Address = 00:22:A5:AA:91:71
    RSSI = -68
    Class = 0x68020c
    Trusted = 0
    Icon = phone

[ 00:41:A5:AA:88:71 ]
    Name = HTC Hero
    Paired = 0
    LegacyPairing = 0
    Alias = HTC Hero
    Address = 00:22:A5:AA:91:71
    RSSI = -68
    Class = 0x68020c
    Trusted = 0
    Icon = phone

This is a very severe and annoying problem.
--------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: the wizard started to work after my 8'th attempt and one reboot. 
Now I can select "HTC hero" from the list and then enter the PIN-code.  It works right.

Bluez-test-discovery command reports now only one single item:
  
$ bluez-test-discovery
[ 00:41:A5:AA:88:71 ]
    Name = HTC Hero
    Paired = 0
    LegacyPairing = 0
    Alias = HTC Hero
    Address = 00:22:A5:AA:91:71
    RSSI = -70
    Class = 0x68020c
    Trusted = 0
    Icon = phone
