Confirming this bug, the error message given is very non "intuitive" and your average user wont have any idea how to fix it. (heck it was only that i had played with the old version of bluez that i had a clue)

I believe the error message is generated by nautilus or gnome in some form or fashion, not bluez. A patch on that would be best, and could be made fairly general purpose, IE if it knows it can speak OBEX with a plugin then inform the user of this at least, and offer to install it at best. Something like how totem works with codecs.

In the near term I'm for adding the dependency, its all of 200kb or so however everything else is included in the default install so I'm not too sure how easy that is to get done (IE adding stuff to the install/live CS).
