Bug Description

Binary package hint: bluez

What else is there to say?

Relevant to at least Intrepid and Jaunty, possibly many more.

bluez-simple-agent is 3 kB in size, and a very important tool for binding (inserting PIN), when not using bluez-gnome (maybe one is limited to console only), or when bluez-gnome decides to use a random PIN (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez-gnome/+bug/284994)

It's a part of bluez package, so... was there a GOOD reason to drop it in the first place?
