Package: bluez
Version: 5.21-3
Followup-For: Bug #754830

Dear Maintainer,

after upgrade + dist-upgrade on Tuesday, 19 August 2014,
I noticed strange behavior of bluetooth manager (in KDE tray) - appeared
and disappeared from time to time. Next day, possibly after another set
of patches, I noticed that bluetooth service does not work anymore.

I updated bluez to the latest 5.21-3 version, compiled and installed
bluez 5.22, which installed hcitool of verions = 5.22, but still same
problem:
When I run `/etc/init.d/bluetooth status`, I receive info that Active: failed,
and some text information like:
| Failed to access management interface
| Adapter handling initialization failed
| bluetooth.service main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
| Unit bluetooth.service entered failed state.

And nothing...
