Public bug reported: After upgrading a machine from Ubuntu Bionic to Ubuntu Focal yesterday, the following error message showed up in the syslog:
Oct 2 23:14:52 desktop01 dbus-daemon[1764]: [session uid=0 pid=1760] Activated service 'org.bluez.obex' failed: Failed to execute program org.bluez.obex: No such file or directory Upon inspection, this was due to the fact that the service definition contained the line 'Exec=@libexecdir@/obexd' which could not be resolved (this placeholder is supposedly to be replaced at build time). Replacing '@libexecdir@' with '/usr/lib/bluetooth' resolved this (together with 'systemctl --user daemon-reload; systemctl --user restart obex'). Note that this problem should be part of *all* current versions of the bluez[-obexd] package, regardless of the used architecture (including Focal, Impish): % wget https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/bluez-obexd_5.60-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb [...] Länge: 217906 (213K) [application/x-debian-package] Wird in »bluez-obexd_5.60-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb« gespeichert.
