Confirming this bug, the error message given is very non "intuitive" and
your average user wont have any idea how to fix it. (heck it was only
that i had played with the old version of bluez that i had a clue)

I believe the error message is generated by nautilus or gnome in some
form or fashion, not bluez. A patch on that would be best, and could be
made fairly general purpose, IE if it knows it can speak OBEX with a
plugin then inform the user of this at least, and offer to install it at
best. Something like how totem works with codecs.

In the near term I'm for adding the dependency, its all of 200kb or so
however everything else is included in the default install so I'm not
too sure how easy that is to get done (IE adding stuff to the
install/live CS).
