[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Bug#535075: bluez: Udev rules for hid2hci do not match any event

Subject: bluez: Udev rules for hid2hci do not match any event
Package: bluez
Version: 4.42-1
Severity: important

My MacBook4,1 has USB bluetooth with ID 05ac:1000, and requires hid2hci. The corresponding rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/62-bluez-hid2hci.rules is:

ACTION=="add", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="05ac", ENV{ID_MODEL}=="1000" RUN+="/lib/udev/bluez --method csr -v $env{ID_VENDOR} -p $env{ID_MODEL} --mode hci"

However, EVN{ID_VENDOR} and ENV{ID_MODEL} do not seem to be set anywhere, so the rule never matches anything. This is confirmed by running 'udevadm test /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-1'. Instead, on my system there exist attributes ATTR{idVendor} and ATTR{idProduct}. The following rule does match, and allows bluetooth to work:

ACTION=="add", ATTR{idVendor}=="05ac", ATTR{idProduct}=="1000", RUN+="/lib/udev/bluez --method csr --mode hci -v $attr{idVendor} -p $attr{idProduct}"

Is it possible that we have different versions of the kernel or udev, and this is causing us to see different udev properties?


PS: Just a nitpick, but your rule is also missing a comma before "RUN". Adding the comma doesn't fix this bug.
