Utilize obexd
Registered by

Currently blackherd-bluetooth utilizes lightblue for OBEX push and OBEX file transfer. lightblue has several problems, including being currently broken on 64-bit Debian systems and lacking basic features such as async file transfer, which is contributing to the terrible design of blackherd at the moment. Switch to obexd (was: obex-data-server) might allow design changes for the better.

Whiteboard
Since lightblue is broken in Debian, and it also sucks, there should be a switch to something D-Bus based. The interface of obexd is more sane than obex-data-server (at first glance), and everything seems to be switching to obexd, so obexd is probably a better choice.
