See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=253735

As far as I can see, this issue has been going on for about a year now
without resolution. So, it won't be a part of Etch? What about bluez?
I see that both Debian and Ubuntu has that, plus some utils that might
work.

Is there a work around?
