When I install bluetooth-service and click the "Bluetooth" item in GNOME
settings, the following lines are added to /var/log/messages:

Nov  4 13:39:29 localhost dbus-daemon[471]: [system] Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.126" (uid=1000 pid=1976 comm="/gnu/store/9imb9ffn8rkrp0bijlcxnvx496wl510n-gnome-") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager" member="GetManagedObjects" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.139" (uid=0 pid=2886 comm="/gnu/store/052b2lxw9d4qypr8gsv71f0zn8qljvax-bluez-")

On a side note, given that Bluetooth is listed in GNOME settings, perhaps
bluetooth-service should also be added to %desktop-services? It's
included by default in Trisquel.
