[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Bug#759188: bluetoothd: Creates FIFO at /tmp/hogsuspend, not in /run

[Ben Hutchings]

Package: bluez
Version: 5.21-2
Severity: serious

There is a FIFO at /tmp/hogsuspend on my system.  It is opened by
bluetoothd, though this doesn't seem to be documented anywhere.

It is apparently a debug feature added this patch (or actually a
later version):
    http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg29802.html

This feature should either be disabled by default or changed to put
the FIFO somewhere under /run.

This bug was previously reported against Fedora:
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=998133
where it was pointed out that this upsets SELinux.

Ben.
