I think we're waiting for version 5.50 or later (for bug 1759628). And even if that was available today we'd still not introduce it till 18.10.
I'd like to keep bluez and pulseaudio in a maturing state, which means they haven't changed in a long time when 18.04 is released. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1759961 Title: Update to 5.49 (mostly bug-fix release) Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: From upstream: http://www.bluez.org/release-of-bluez-5-49/ Release of BlueZ 5.49 This is mostly a bug fix release, with fixes to features such as AVCTP, OBEX, GATT and Mesh.
