Bug Description

Ubuntu Dapper 6.06.1
Package: nautilus-sendto
Architecture: i386
Version: 0.5-0ubuntu4

Bluetooth transfers using nautilus-sendto fail if gnome-bluetooth package is not installed. This package isn't installed by default and nautilus-sendto doesn't assist user to install it.

nautilus-sendto logs WARNING message about this to ~/.xsession-errors:
** (nautilus-sendto:27624): WARNING **: Couldn't send files via bluetooth: Failed to execute child process "gnome-obex-send" (No such file or directory)

It would be nice to get it as translated dialog message too.

   * debian/rules:

   * debian/control.in:
     - added libgnomebt0-dev and libbtctl2-dev to Build-Depends.
     - recommends gnome-bluetooth and advertise it in the Description.
