Package: bluez-obexd Version: 5.84-1 Followup-For: Bug #1123793 On Sun, 04 Jan 2026 17:42:35 +0000, I wrote: > As a workaround, I was able to run the obexd daemon from the command-line with > the PBAP plugin disabled -- and this allowed file push from the Android device > without installation of evolution-data-server: > > $ /usr/libexec/bluetooth/obexd --noplugin pbap --debug -n
It seems I was mistaken about this; the existing system-level evolution data server daemon was still running, despite the fact that I had uninstalled the package. Disabling the pbap plugin removes one attempt to initialise the phonebook via evolution -- but one other activation attempt occurs, too, and from initial inspection I think that this is an unconditional part of the client manager startup code (e.g. it cannot be disabled from the commandline).
