[Bug 89758] Re: bluetooth: passkey-agent ends with /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart
I think that the passkey-agent is not necessary to keep running even when the bluetooth service is restarted. But I'd like to vote for the debian way to start the passkey-agent. The ubuntu way: The passkey agent is started via autostart in this file /usr/share/autostart/ kbluepin.autostart.desktop The disadvantage is: If bluetooth is stopped or restarted passkey agent gets disconnected and can not be restarted if the user does not know the above mentioned command. The debian way: /usr/bin/kbluetoothd is renamed to /usr/bin/kbluetoothd.real /usr/bin/kbluetoothd is a shell script which first starts passkey-agent and then /usr/bin/kbluetoothd.real. The advantage for the user: If the passkey-agent gets killed for whatever reason, just restart kbluetoothd and you are set. Most people are restarting a non-cooperative program as a reflex and it will work again. On the other hand since the passkey-agent line is just a hack needed for kbluepin/kbluetoothd with the debian script the workaround is contained only in this file. ** Changed in: kdebluetooth (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed = Confirmed -- bluetooth: passkey-agent ends with /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart https://launchpad.net/bugs/89758 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
