Package: bluez
Version: 4.94-2
Severity: important
Just upgraded bluez to 4.94-2 as it came into testing sometime this week,
and my Logitech bluetooth keyboard and mouse combo (MX5500) stopped working
again. I have rolled back to a known working version (4.66-3). I know there
was an upgrade since 4.66-3 that was OK but I don't remember the version
number. Rolling bluez only back to 4.66-3 fixes the problem.
Please look into this guys, because wireless keyboard users like me really
get hit hard when this keeps breaking. Please let me know if there's any
more info I can provide that will help. I'm not sure what logs etc would be
relevant. Fortunately I'm not as messed up by
this this time as I learned the hard way how to find an old working version
and roll back the last time this happened.
What can we as a community do to help prevent the continuing recurrence of
issues with Logitech keyboards? Is there something we can pressure the vendor
to be more forthcoming on? Or testing of proposed upgrades we can
participate in (I'm neither super technical nor awash with spare time, but
I'm willing to help as much as I can if it will mean I can upgrade bluez
without cringing in the future... :-) )
