Created attachment 203181 [details, diff] Add "plugdev" policy to bluetooth.conf
+ 05 Sep 2009; Patrick Lauer <patrick@gentoo.org> +bluez-4.39-r1.ebuild, + +files/bluez-plugdev.patch: + Adding plugdev policy. Fixes #283744. Thanks to Fabio Erculiani.
Although this change is already present in all bluez-4.* ebuilds, the elog messages for -consolekit say "Since you have the consolekit use flag disabled, you will only be able to run bluetooth clients as root (...)". Shouldn't this be also changed to state plugdev membership works too? I'll attach a patch proposal to add "or to add the user to the plugdev group." at the end of the -consolekit message.
