Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus-sendto

If bluetooth-sendto is installed in the system, nautilus-sendto tries to use bluetooth-sendto using a "--dest" commandline option, which is not supported, ending with a "Unknown option --dest" console output.

This is in hardy with nautilus-sendto-0.13.2-0ubuntu1 and bluez-gnome-0.23-0ubuntu1

Reported upstream as bug number 519657 and probable identification of the problem in code source.

As pointed by Bastien Nocera in upstream bug, the solution is to patch bluetooth-sendto as in http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/bluez-gnome/devel/

This adds --dest commandline option to bluetooth-sendto

Let me clarify this. The --dest option was there before, it's in Gutsy and earlier versions of Ubuntu. It needs to be re-added, therefore it doesn't need a feature freeze exception.

I tried the patch and confirm that it makes nautilus send-to feature via bluetooth working again. Patch applies cleanly with Hardy's bluez-gnome.
