Package: bluez Version: 5.33-1 Severity: normal On 2015-08-27 the bluez package on my system was upgraded. After that upgrade, my machine stopped being able to connect to devices which had been working fine before the upgrade.
Actually, it appears that the devices "connect", in the sense that my device beams and appears to indicate that it was a host, but the device is not available to use on my system.
