net-wireless/bluez-4.96-r1 should have wiimote support. With a "wiimote" use flag enabled and a kernel with xwiimote support (hid-wiimote module), the system can connect very easly a wiimote through bluetooth system only. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.`emerge -v net-wireless/bluez`. 2.load hid-wiimote module. 3.try to pair the wiimote through bluetooth device manager (like bluedevil). Actual Results: Bluez can't pair with the wiimote via hid-wiimote module. Other methods for using wiimote (like cwiid) works well. Expected Results: Bluez should connect to the wiimote. By adding a USE flag in the original ebuild, bluez can be successfully compiled with wiimote support.

*bluez-4.97-r1 (31 Dec 2011) *bluez-4.97 (31 Dec 2011) 31 Dec 2011; Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> +files/bluez-4.67-udev.script, -bluez-4.96-r2.ebuild, +bluez-4.97.ebuild, +bluez-4.97-r1.ebuild, +files/rfcomm-conf.d, +files/rfcomm-init.d: Version bump that also includes IMPORTANT changes: - old-daemons were dropped because they are poorly maintained and I am unable to test them. Also have some problems and look to not work at all in default setups (bug #381355 by Agostino Sarubbo and Rafał Mużyło). If you think you still need some of them, please open a new bug report explaining your needs to let us find a replacement or, if none is available, readd only needed old daemons. - 'bluetooth' init.d script has been completely removed as it was only calling "udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=bluetooth --action=add" at startup. This instruction is now called directly by /lib/udev/bluetooth.sh (the one that was previously calling init.d script and causing problems on systemd setups as reported by mgorny and others (bug #396403), this should also solve bug #389531. Due this change, it's possible that you will start to see how your bluetooth device is not properly detected just after booting if not manually running "udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=bluetooth --action=add", if this is your case, please report a bug to readd a bluetooth init.d script for that (even without getting it automatically started by udev to not hurt systemd users). - Because of previous change, 'rfcomm' part of old bluetooth init.d script has been moved to its own script under /etc/init.d and conf.d. - Due bug 392879 (by Otamay) I have rethink the way some plugins were being installed or not to simply always build and install them. This adds no additional dependencies, also simplifies ebuild preventing it from growing forever with a lot of USE flags and, probably the most important one, makes bluez to simply support and work with more devices. Also remove old.
