Description emarsk 2015-05-14 12:20:46 UTC
On installation, emerge says:

 * Messages for package net-wireless/bluez-5.30:

 * To use dial up networking you must install net-dialup/ppp.
 * Since you don't have sys-auth/consolekit neither sys-apps/systemd, you will only
 * be able to run bluetooth clients as root. If you want to be able to run bluetooth clients as
 * a regular user, you need to add the user to the plugdev group.

The second sentence is misleading, possibly even biased, and clearly contradicted by the third one.
A better wording could be:

 * Messages for package net-wireless/bluez-5.30:

 * To use dial up networking you must install net-dialup/ppp.
 * Since you don't have sys-auth/consolekit neither sys-apps/systemd,
 * if you want to be able to run bluetooth clients as a regular user,
 * you need to add the user to the plugdev group.


Reproducible: Always
