Well there seem to be different bluez versions depending on the
distribution. E.g. on my (old) SuSE 10.2 System bluez is installed in
version 3.7 (its supposed to be newer than the latest official bluez package
- strange!) ?
But the latest release of the public bluez.org download-section is 3.32?
Do the the distributors compile their own bluez packages and at the same
time change the version-number?
I also figured out some differences e.g. in the arguments of the request
message, sent out after a create_bonding.
Why do they make such changes?
I think this strategy is sort of confusing because you don't know exactly
the differences of official bluez packages and the adpated of your
distribution...
Thanks...

I'd say that 7 < 32.

I don't

I'm pretty sure i didn't. Probably it's just that 3.7 had different handling
than 3.32 has.

I add only very few patches to the package. Sometimes it's fixes backported
from newer releases after the version freeze for the distribution, sometimes
it's some special stuff needed for interaction with the system, which might
not (yet) be upstream, but that is pretty rare.
