gnome-bluetooth-3.6.1

Installation of GNOME Bluetooth

Install GNOME Bluetooth by running the following commands:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc &&
make

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the root user:

make install

For GNOME Bluetooth to work as expected, users need to be allowed to write to /dev/rfkill. Create a Udev rule that will allow normal users to write to /dev/rfkill with the following command as the root user:

cat > /lib/udev/rules.d/61-gnome-bluetooth.rules << "EOF"
# Get access to /dev/rfkill for users
# See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=514798
#
# Updated for udev >= 154
# http://bugs.debian.org/582188
# https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=588660
