Bug#558377: gnome-bluetooth: Even obexd-server is missing functionality

[Apelete Seketeli]

Package: gnome-bluetooth
Version: 2.28.3-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

I noticed that even obexd-server is missing some functionality: I was unable to
browse my phone memory with it installed. Nautilus keeps on throwing me the
following error:

Could not display "obex://adress.of.device"

Error: Method "CreateBluetoothSession" with signature "sss" on interface
"org.openobex.Manager" doesn't exist

Please select another viewer and try again.


The only way to browse the device again was to install obex-data-server.
Is it a bug in obexd-server (in which case I may report a bug) or is it really a
missing functionality ? If it's the latter why was obex-data-server dropped (so
soon) in the first place ?

Regards.
