Description Martin Schlander 2011-02-26 17:24:42 UTC

User-Agent:       Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; da) Presto/2.7.62 Version/11.01

In order to be able to send files via bluetooth with bluedevil, obexd-client should be installed. So this package should probably be a requirement - or at least recommended by bluedevil.

However, there's another problem. obexd-client pulls in obexd, which pulls in evolution-data-server and some other strange things (at least I _think_ that's how the dependencies spread).

Reproducible: Always

Yes, please, do so. Make it a requirement.
It took me hours to find a solution until I found this bug.

Or if some dev jumps in, make Bluedevil throw a warning whenever the user tries to send a file to a device, like "Sending files through bluetooth requires obexd-client. Install now? [YES, NO]"

In KDF bluedevil requires obexd-client. So this bug is fixed, however there is not already the first report (bug 710863) which critizes that evolution-data-server gets dragged in. Lets track this there.
