Hi Khem,

The idea was to make blueman work without further ado. Adding it made
blueman usable - before it could not connect to nothing. BTW: It was
me who introduced blueman. When I tested - it displayed devices and
since it was not a top priority I decided to take care for details
later.
The reason I chose to use packagegroup-tools-bluetooth is that the
packages added matched exactly the needs. It even takes care for
DISTRO_FEATURE pulseaudio. Regarding redundancy: I would like to to
same in meta-qt5-extra/bluedevil situation is similar there. So in
case something is missing or not necessary,
packagegroup-tools-bluetooth is the target of interest.

How about using RRECOMMEND - it is slightly less 'agressive' and makes
packagegroup-tools-bluetooth not mandatory (for packagemanager other
than opkg)?
