I didn't do an apt autoremove last Sunday, but may have done one the Sunday before -- which would have been reckless even for me just before going on a business trip during which I wanted to be able to access my machine remotely [albeit not the bluetooth parts], but I suspect I did it anyway... I certainly did one recently, just can't remember exactly when, and hence can't be sure whether I have used bluetooth headphones successfully since...
If anyone can remember which package that is, I can check if it is installed... The only thing is I am not sure how it would have got onto the system if it isn't depended on and I didn't install it manually. And if it IS depended on, or I did install it manually, apt autoremove should not have removed it... To someone's point, Google'S coming up fairly blank on this one... Mark
