[Voyage-linux] Bluetooth connection with PIN

In Bluez 4 they changed a lot.  The old code for supplying the PIN 
doesn't work anymore.

Now it has to be done via dbus, and the Bluez package contains a Python 
script for doing this (it has dependencies on GObject and Dbus 
modules).  Last time I checked there was no C/C++ version, so the only 
solution (other then installing pieces of Gnome or KDE) is to use the 
Python script.

For more on this I would suggest the Linux Bluetooth mailing list:

Hope this helps.
