Comment 1 Gino McCarty 2018-07-13 07:37:43 UTC 
also.. i don't really understand the need for 
requiring ppp to use modemmanager
Comment 2 Gino McCarty 2018-10-27 00:44:51 UTC 
hello?
Comment 3 El Goretto 2018-11-13 15:26:01 UTC 
Hi,

I can confirm this bug, the "bluetooth" USE flag without "modemmanager" USE flag doesn't produce a working bluetooth plugin for NetworkManager.

Regards,
Elgo
