Package: bluez-utils
Version: 3.13-1
Severity: normal
When executing "sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart", pand fails to
register a service with the SDP server. Stopping bluetooth
and then restarting it after a reasonable pause does work.
Enabling debug output and examining /var/log/syslog shows that pand
tries to register the service before hcid has had the chance to
start the SDP server, making this a nice example of a race condition.
I don't know what the best fix for this would be. In my opinion, hcid
should not daemonize before the SDP server is up. Adding a 'sleep 2'
between stopping and restarting the daemons would be a quick fix, but
reliability of this will depend too much on system load and performance.
