[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Bug#466892: Pairing pin tool is missing

Package: bluez-utils
Version: 3.24-1+b1

Hello,

there is no tools for the command line supplied within the package,
despite that passkey-agent is in upstream.

This missing utilitiy renders the package almost useless when trying to
pair with a device (e.g. headset) for console users. Admittingly
passkey-agent isn't the most comfortable or best documented tool that is
possible, but to the best of my knowledge the only one available that
works with the command line.

So please include it as a binary in the package and do not hide it under
examples.

Beside, mentioning running passkey-agent --default 0000 as a first
aid to pair devices in the README.Debian would be a good idea IMHO.

Bye,

Joerg
