The configured path reported was /home/rrs/Public, which was
non-existent. Perhaps that was the problem.

Yes, that's the problem. You can unset the configuration with gconftool-2 -u.

blueman will then use glib to get the user's public share directory. glib in terms uses XDG für that. The XDG configuration should be ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs. I do not know if glib will create the configured path if not present; blueman will not.

If you want to use the path, create it, otherwise set the XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR variable in the XDG configuration e. g. to "$HOME".

You can also set the gconf value to whatever path you want. This will overwrite glib / XDG.

Do you think it's a blueman bug that it does not check the path and create it (if possible) or give an error message if it's not present? Otherwise we can close this.

Regards
