Bug#821142: gnome-bluetooth: cannot pair with keyboards requiring SSP

Package: gnome-bluetooth
Version: 3.14.0-2

Certain keyboards (including the Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard K760;
Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard K810; and the HP Bluetooth Keyboard K4000)
require a technology called "Simple Secure Pairing" which is broken in
the version of gnome-bluetooth currently available in Jessie.  For
further details of the problem, see Launchpad bug #1035431.

The attached patch to the package fixes the problem.  This patch has
been included in Ubuntu's trusty-updates repository and I would like to
suggest that it be proposed as an update to Debian Jessie.

I believe that the fix depends on a corresponding patch to bluez; I am
filing a bug against that package too.
