The problem with the kdebluetooth in KDE 3.5 is that it only works with 
BlueZ 3.x. It should not be too difficult to port it to the new BlueZ 
stack as it uses D-Bus calls instead of linking to bluez shared library.

We unfortunately currently ship blueman as our Bluetooth manager as we 
don't have enough power to make kdebluetooth work. blueman works 
out-of-the-box.

Timothy, the main development resides in kde/branches/trinity right? I'm 
gonna prepare a report for every base package consisting of what the 
patch I'm suggesting is doing, etc.

And also do you plan to split kde-i18n tarballs?
