Heya,

We've been carrying a similar (but hard-coded) patch in Fedora for a long while, and it would be nice if we could do this properly upstream instead.

Patch attached with explanations.

Subject: [PATCH] Make the path to oui.txt a compile-time option

This avoids bluetoothd trying to load oui.txt from multiple locations and cause SELinux AVC denials by accessing files it's not supposed to touch.

What is the proper package to ship oui.txt file? Thanks a lot for the information :-)

No idea. In Fedora we ship it in hwdata. No idea where it lives for Debian-based distributions, or others.

OK, thanks, I asked it because under Gentoo no package is currently providing it and a user suggested to supply it with bluez... but I haven't made any decision about this yet

That's probably a good enough way to ship it. Various distributions seem to have a different idea on where it should be.

Great, I will probably follow your recommendation, thanks a lot :-)

Seems like a good idea. The patch is now upstream.
