I'm looking at them one by one, bluez debian packages are maintained with s= vn. You can browse the patches for bluez-utils at http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-bluetooth/bluez-utils/trunk/debian/patches/?= rev=3D0&sc=3D0 you might be interested in: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-bluetooth/bluez-utils/trunk/debian/patches/0= 07_hcid_typo.patch?op=3Dfile&rev=3D0&sc=3D0 which fixes a small typo in hcid http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-bluetooth/bluez-utils/trunk/debian/patches/0= 08_pand_man.patch?op=3Dfile&rev=3D0&sc=3D0 addition for pand manpage referring /etc/bluetooth/pan/dev-up execution http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-bluetooth/bluez-utils/trunk/debian/patches/0= 06_xsims.patch?op=3Dfile&rev=3D0&sc=3D0 more compatible usage of test in bluetooth.init and hsplay [snip] > And please drop your passkey agent think completely.
