It looks like hcidump is no longer supported:

<quote> build: Hide deprecated tools under --enable-deprecated This
marks the following tools as deprecated as they are not longer
maintained or have been replaced by other tools: hciattach hciconfig
hcitool hcidump rfcomm sdptool ciptool gatttool </quote>

Though it is not very clear what can be used instead.

I think the replacement for hcidump should be btmon (plus btsnoop?)
For the rest I think it is like this:
- hciattach seems to be replaced by btattach.
- hciconfig can probably be replaced by btmgmt nad maybe bluetoothctl.
- gatttool looks similar to btgatt-client.
- hcitool seems to be replaced by the dbus device api without any
commandline tool.
- rfcomm and ciptool seems to be missing, they probably want you to use
the dbus profile api.
- sdptool seems to be missing, you should probably use the different
dbus objects like the profile api, the advertising api, and the UUIDs
list in device api and adapter api.

Hello Andy,

You seem to have a good knowledge about that - could You probably update wiki pages?

Hello Peter,
What I wrote is about the extent of my knowledge. I'll add it to the wiki, though. I was looking for an rfcomm replacement, so I created a list of likely candidates for the deprecated tools. I never tried them and for the time being use rfcomm from the AUR: bluez-utils-compat
