[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Bug#643321: Acknowledgement (no bt after upgrade (4.94-2 -> 4.96-1))

[Trent W. Buck]

PS: looking through the logs, I found /var/log/apt/term.log contained this:

Unpacking replacement cron ...
Preparing to replace bluez 4.94-2 (using .../bluez_4.96-1_amd64.deb) ...
Stopping bluetooth: /usr/sbin/bluetoothd.
dpkg: warning: version 'bluez' has bad syntax: version number does not start with digit
Unpacking replacement bluez ...
Preparing to replace udev 171-3 (using .../archives/udev_172-1_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement udev ...

This appears to relate to /var/lib/dpkg/info/bluez.preinst:

  ...
  if dpkg-maintscript-helper supports mv_conffile; then
    dpkg-maintscript-helper mv_conffile \
        /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf 3.7-1 bluez -- "$@"

  ...

Based on the second call in that file, you have forgotten the mv destination.
I don't know if this has any bearing on the symptoms I'm seeing, but

    # ls /etc/dbus-1/system.d/
    bluetooth.conf.dpkg-remove  org.debian.AptXapianIndex.conf  wpa_supplicant.conf

Attempting to move it back didn't help:

    # mv /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf.dpkg-remove /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf
    # /etc/init.d/dbus start
    Starting system message bus: dbus.
    # hcitool scan
