Package: bluez-pcmcia-support
Version: 2.24-1
Severity: important


Hi,

as it seems to me bluez-pcmcia-support does not support systems which use 
pcmciautils. Since this affects essentially every system with a more or less 
up-to-date kernel the package is mostly unusable.

While trying to fix it for my own system I found that SuSE seem to have 
modified the /etc/pcmcia/bluetooth script in order to work with 
pcmciautils/udev. I don't understand udev and the SuSE way to do things 
enough to translate those modifications to Debian, but they may serve as a 
starting point.

Kind regards,

Felix
