I think there's a little confusion here:

bluez-gnome [currently in the debian archive] is the gnome "interface" for
managing bluez/bluetooth-related stuff

gnome-bluetooth [currently NOT in the archive but semi-working packages present
in pkg-bluetooth svn repository] is the bluetooth integration with the gnome
desktop environment

random quote follows:

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by
definition, not smart enough to debug it.
