Description Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2014-11-22 19:06:58 UTC
If a bluetooth device has only one associated connection (the common
case) then use the name of that connection instead of the device name.

This allows the user to rename their Bluetooth connections by way of the
"Connection name" field in System Settings.

btw: note that _sync() gets called whenever anything changes and that results in the label being re-read and updated.  This means that the right thing happens when a new connection appears or disappears and also when the user edits the connection name in the dialog.

It's almost like I wrote the code to be really convenient and cool like that.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of  gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
