Package: blueman Version: 1.99~alpha1-1 Severity: grave Since I upgraded this laptop to jessie, I cannot use Blueman to connect to the internet by tethering to my phone.
I think this is an upstream bug described here: https://github.com/blueman-project/blueman/issues/161 In the GUI, I see "No such file or directory" in the status bar. I am able to workaround the problem by using commandline tools to connect to the phone, so I don't believe the phone or the BlueZ stack is the problem. The workaround is to use rfcomm directly, in my case: rfcomm -r -A -E -M connect rfcomm0 <bluetoothaddr> where <bluetoothaddr> is a MAC-like address I see from the bluetoothctl list output, once I figure out how to enable bluetooth (ironically, through blueman-applet). I insist on pointing out this is a regression from Wheezy and should really be fixed before jessie is released, hence the "grave" severity above. Bluetooth has little purpose on this laptop but this functionality, and I suspect this is the case with a lot of people. I am available for debugging this further as necessary, but I would seriously consider downgrading back to the stable version (1.23) while upstream works on 2.0, which seems to be more in an alpha state.
