[maemo-developers] Bluez utilities - where get it

[From: Arkady Glazov]

Hi Marcel,

I don't find package in chinook repository:

/home/user # apt-get install bluez-utils-test
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package bluez-utils-test
/home/user #

I need this tools for binding rfcomm device. I solved the problem
after building BlueZ 3.20 from chinook sources under scratchbox and
from there taking these utilities.
