pybluez doesn't work

[reklak]

I got:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "inquiry-with-rssi.py", line 7, in ?
    import _bluetooth as bluez
ImportError: No module named _bluetooth

Module PyBluez was installed from package and from tarball. The results are the same
on both Python versions 2.4 and 2.5.
Dont work other examples from PyBluez which import _bluetooth module.

My actual Ubuntu version is: 8.04 i386.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at [WWW] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. I have classified this bug as a bug in pybluez

OK.
I forgot to associate this bug with package.
It should be associated with python-bluez (python-bluetooth).

If you run:
dpkg --search _bluetooth.so

you should see:
python-bluez: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/bluetooth/_bluetooth.so

Basically, you need to change:
import _bluetooth

with:
import bluetooth._bluetooth

The choice of moving _bluetooth.so in the bluetooth directory seems to be peculiar of Ubuntu.

For consistency the example files like "inquiry-with-rssi.py" should be updated with the new module path.

Can you confirm this bug on Jaunty?

[reklak (reklak)]

I can not confirm this bug.
In Jaunty is OK.
