There is nothing we can do from bluez side. If the kernel interface we need to do *any* work is not available we can't do anything else but fail. The "bluetooth" module needs to be loaded or the kernel compiled with CONFIG_BT=y rather than CONFIG_BT=m.

Is there any reason not to compile bluetooth support directly into the kernel? Any driver can still be loaded as module but the subsystem should be always available.

Perhaps not from the daemon itself, but the packaging certainly needs to be fixed. It could be that the .service file grows some Condition*= to not start if we already know that it won't work; or the .postinst shouldn't fail when the service fails (e. g. dh_installinit --error-handler=true).

Even if we would change our kernel package to always include bluetooth, that still would make the package fail for custom/third-party kernels, so I'd say this is neither required nor sufficient. Let's fix the bluez packaging instead.

Wily fix uploaded (might end up as an SRU, though). I also sent the patch upstream, will add a link once it hits the upstream ML archives.

This bug was fixed in the package bluez - 5.35-0ubuntu2

  * Add 0001-systemd-Check-if-bluetooth-is-supported-in-the-kerne.patch:
    bluetooth.service: Check if bluetooth is supported in the kernel, to avoid
    failing package installation on a kernel without bluetooth support.

this sru has hit Kubuntu in a strange way -> bug #1509334 (30 seconds delay for final desktop)

JUST be4 the final release :-(

The fix for Wily is stuck now in the "proposed-queue", actually thinking this bitesize-bugfix (there) should enter "wily-updates"

Could you take a look at it?

best regards

It's 8 days now, so ready to be released; the SRU team should do that
soon (but they might avoid releasing updates on Fridays).
