Log:
Remove stale 'Recommends: bluez-deprecated'
The 'bluez-deprecated' package provides retired BlueZ CLI tools:
'hciconfig', 'hcitool', 'rfcomm', 'sdptool', 'ciptool', 'gatttool'.
Added in commit 6dc85f4 (2025-12-11, "Update to 6.6.0") with the
comment "required to fix system-info".
Evidence chain:
1. The system-info module ('cs_info.py') runs 'inxi -FJxxxrzc0'.
The '-F' flag enables all data sections, including '-E' (bluetooth).
This is the ONLY path to bluetooth tool usage in cinnamon.
2. inxi gathers bluetooth data via a fallback chain:
'hciconfig' (bluez-deprecated) -> 'btmgmt' (bluez) ->
'bt-adapter' (bluez-tools) -> 'rfkill' / sysfs.
When the first tool is missing, inxi displays "This feature
requires one of these tools: hciconfig/bt-adapter" — but continues
without error.
3. The regular 'bluez' package (always present on bluetooth-capable
systems) provides 'btmgmt', which is inxi's second fallback.
Bluetooth data gathering works without 'bluez-deprecated'.
4. The cinnamon source has zero direct references to any deprecated
BlueZ tool. Searched all .py and .js files across both the 6.4.12
(pre-Recommends) and 6.6.0 (post-Recommends) trees — identical
results.
5. Blueberry (Cinnamon's bluetooth manager) also has zero references
to deprecated tools.
The Recommends was likely added to suppress inxi's missing-tool
message, but btmgmt from the standard 'bluez' package already
satisfies inxi's bluetooth data gathering.
