The kdebluetooth4 version in the 4.2 or 4.1 branch only works with
bluez3-x. So if you want to use that version you have to downgrade your
bluez packages to the latest 3.x version. Maybe the 4.2 version also
wont work with bluez3, because its some time ago i started to port
kdebluetooth4 and solid-bluetooth, so that version is a mixed one.
The version in trunk will work with the latest bluez4 version, when its
finished. That api change also results in major solid-bluetooth layer
changes. So these changes are not less and the amount of time i can
spent on things going further is not very much.
But ATM i have some more time to invest to get kdebluetooth4 back in a
better shape. So far it looks really good, so just be patient.

Sure, but you need to update kdebase (solid-bluetooth) and kdebluetooth4
... so after that its not really a 4.1 anymore :)
