~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ # Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> (25 Oct 2012) # obexd changed its API without any warning, it's recommended to ship # 0.46 until https://bugzilla.gnome.org/682106 is fixed to prevent # bluetooth-sendto breakage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ That bug has been fixed.
Why is there no Gentoo bug report?
The bug was fixed porting it to obexd from bluez since old splitted bluez was deprecated long time ago and, then, the apps using app-mobilephone/obexd are only compatible with <= 0.46 version or the newer from bluez-5 If we want to get it unmasked we would need to check it doesn't break the apps still relying on old obexd package: net-wireless/bluedevil -> please recheck rdepend on obexd is really needed, fedora package dropped it at: * Thu Dec 12 2013 Rex Dieter <rdieter@fedoraproject.org> - 2.0.0-0.6.20131128 - Obsolete dep on obexd (#998218) - noarch -devel subpkg app-mobilephone/obex-data-server -> no idea if the patch applied in opensuse is for fixing obexd compat :/ dev-qt/qt-mobility -> it doesn't depend on obexd package on Fedora, would be nice to check if it's still really needed net-wireless/gnome-bluetooth -> we need to wait for gnome-3.10 stabilization net-wireless/mate-bluetooth -> probably only compatible with old obexd as old gnome-bluetooth was
`grep`ping bluedevil-2.0_rc1 source shows that it uses only `org.bluez.obex` service, which is, indeed provided by bluez. README lists `obex-data-server` and `obexd-client` as dependencies. I have no idea what this `obexd-client` is. The only similar thing I could find is "obexd_client.h" header generated by moc from an interface of `org.bluez.obex`. Anyway, I confirm that I can both send and receive files from my phone using bluedevil-2.0_rc1 and bluez-5.15 with obexd uninstalled.

Remove kde from here we proceed in bug 509358
dev-qt/qt-mobility has been handled in bug 509360.
