Hi Nick:

Thanks for the bug report. None of these are critical errors, but mostly warnings instead.

makedev is the one causing these problems

bluez (4.12-0ubuntu3) intrepid; urgency=low

  * debian/bluez.postinst:
    - Don't show output for MAKEDEV. (LP: 280360)
  * Add dell_bt_365.patch which will enable putting the Dell BT365
    adapter into HCI mode upon bootup. (LP: #286724)
  * debian/control:
    - Add one more binary package for old compatibility binaries. (LP: #281580)
  * debian/rules:
    - Enable compatibility binaries. These are HIGHLY discouraged from usage
      and will not necessarily be here in the future.
  * debian/bluez.install:
    - Adjust what binaries get installed, to be able to pull out hidd, dund,
      and pand as necessary.
