    hello guys,

    i am trying to install lightblue 0.2 on kubuntu as explained on the website. (python setup.py install). i have the good version of APIS needed: pybluez0.9.1, openobex1.3.1 and bluez.
    Sooo when i run python setup.py install in /root/lightblue/lightblue0.2 i got the following error:

    running install
    running build
    running build_py
    running build_ext

      Hi,

      It looks like it can't find the bluetooth library header files. Have you installed the libbluetooth1-dev, bluez-utils, and libbluetooth1 packages?

      hello Bea,

      Thank you so much for you reply.
      Effectively i had some packages missing... I thought that libluetooth was installed since bluez-utils is natively setup on kubuntu. i also had to install libopenobex even i had install openobex-apps. So now it's working perfectly. Great great great.
      I am planning to use that with firefox using pyxpcom!! wish me luck :p

      bye and thx again.

        No problems.

        Ah that's right, libopenobex would be required as well.

        Good luck with it!
