Bug#382269: fails to interface with pin agent

[Stefano Mosconi]

Hi again.

In my case, I solved the problem by doing

 echo -n "1234" > /etc/bluetooth/passkeys/00:18:A4:17:6D:84

instead of

 echo "1234" > /etc/bluetooth/passkeys/00:18:A4:17:6D:84

Apparently, I could not authenticate because of the EOL in the files in
/etc/bluetooth/passkeys , as it is suggested in Bug#383188 .

Please, try it: perhaps this is also the problem other people in this
bug report are seeing

Regards,
