yes, and that's why the conflict will stay where it is. > > The great problem is that obexd-server conflicts with obex-data-server which > > means that quite all the devices that should use obex-data-server (like many > > functionalities of gnome-bluetooth and more) are now completely unusable. > > which interface gnome-bluetooth uses? obexd or ods? it should properly depend > on one of those of course.
