Bug Description

[Impact]
Currently gnome-bluetooth treats all devices with oui="7C:1E:52:" equally which makes the Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000 unable to be paired.

Without this fix, users cannot use this bluetooth keyboard at all.

[Test case]
The keyboard can't be paired without this fix, and can pair/connect to it with the fix. MS sculpt/wedge mice should work before and after the fix is in place.

[Regression Potential]
MS sculpt/wedge mice is affected, so they should be tested with the new fix.

Seems the issue is intermittent, probably due to bluetooth device on this particular machine. I'm doing more testing now.

Tested again with fresh 14.04 fresh install and gnome-bluetooth 3.8.2.1-0ubuntu4.1, both Sculpt and Wedge mice can be paired, connected and usable.
I don't have the keyboard though, so I am asking help from Tim Chen to test that.

Found out that the previous patch has problem to re-connect the mouse after it's disconnected, need the patch in lp:~anthonywong/ubuntu/utopic/gnome-bluetooth/lp1312349 to fix it. Could someone please help to upload to utopic?

Meanwhile, set the tag to verification-failed.

Anthony, your patch is still proposed for trusty, could you test it and tell us whether things are working properly now, and in which releases?

So I can see what was uploaded to trusty isn't the same code as what I sponsored to utopic; let's remove that package and reupload the same fix that got into utopic.
