Is this a raspbian problem or a me problem?

Unknown at this time what is causing the problem. These bluetooth packages were giving problems to the autobuilders and I built them manually to clear up some dependencies. It's possible the package was incorrectly built when I built it. I have a bluetooth USB dongle I was looking at getting to work and I'll take a look at this within the next day or two and see if I can track down what the issue might be.

I also get a segfault on bluez. here is the back trace:

Check: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=631807
The attached patch worked on my RPi with Raspbian.

[mpthompson]

I've been documenting this problem and following this bug in the Raspbian bug base here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/raspbian/+bug/1008593

I'm glad a potential fix was found. I'll make the suggested changes to the packages, rebuild them and put them into our repository in the next 24 hours or so.

[bob_binz]

Mike, not to hassle, but is this done? (i.e. patched libcap-ng) I just went down the patch/build/install myself route for libcap-ng - I don't recall it being upgraded in my last apt-get upgrade. Again, I don't mean to mither, but if others need to use this, I was gonna put a quick step-by-step together.

BTW, thanks to Mauimauer for the pointer to the patch

[mpthompson]

Sorry, I didn't get a chance to take care of it and I don't think I have time before I leave town for a few days, but I'll try to get it done in the next two hours. I'll post back here as soon as it's done.

[mpthompson]

OK, I applied the patch and it is inserted into our repository. It should be pushed within the next few hours to the public repository and the mirrors.

The version of the binary package is: libcap-ng0_0.6.6-1+rpi1

I verified that the packages bluetooth & bluez-utils now install without the segfault.

Thank you for tracking down this issue and finding a fix. Sorry that I didn't jump on getting the fix into the repository as fast as I should have.

[bob_binz]

Great work Mike - thanks for this. Enjoy your days away!

[ratherDashing]

I can confirm bluetooth works fine now. I'm using ath3k.

Hi

How do I upgrade /usr/lib/libcap-ng to libcap-ng0_0.6.6-1+rpi1 ?

I tried googling it but only found the link to this site...

Thanks

With Raspbian, it should automatically upgrade with the following commands:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If that doesn't work, let us know here or on the Raspbian IRC channel and we'll try to help you out.

I don't believe you are using raspbian or your /etc/apt/sources.list is a tad odd. It should be :

Code: Select all

deb http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi
deb-src http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi

did you change your sources.list or are you using a different debian based install?

Hi, that's my wheezy image rather than Raspbian. To fix this issue, I need to rebuild the package with the suggested patch and include it in our Raspberry Pi specific repo (though you'd rather hope upstream Debian might have got round to fixing it by now...). I haven't had a chance to do it yet.

[richtoy]

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response. It would be nice if this was in the next Debian/Wheezy image because it appears to be non trivial to get bluetooth/bluez working without it. Keep up the good work guys

[treii28]

running into this again on a recent install/version of rpi

[Douglas6]

Not likely to be the same issue. More likely is the fact that bluez-utils is no longer a package. (Heck of a necro-post, however.)

[treii28]

I meant I'm getting the same errors listed in this thread and bluez / bluetooth not installing with the same responses. Necro or not, I'm getting the same thing on a recent install. Related or not, I'm getting the same errors on a recent install.

[opi]

I meant I'm getting the same errors listed in this thread and bluez / bluetooth not installing with the same responses. Necro or not, I'm getting the same thing on a recent install. Related or not, I'm getting the same errors on a recent install.

I was receiving similar errors, as you possibly were. My errors were the same as in this thread. A restart and another sudo apt-get upgrade solved the problem for me.
