Last time I used with bluez? I think about few months ago, I hadn't time
to debug the issue and I tend not to use stuff I known broken.

I know that's a chicken egg issue =|

I'm not sure if connman hanging randomly is related to dbus or connman
itself, again I hadn't had time to check what's exactly wrong.

No dependency beside libc.

Yet it crashes in some situations. My fault for not helping debugging
them I guess. Again, I had something more interesting to do.

Disabling it if I don't need it, as everybody in the world does disable
the posix message queues?

I guess freebsd is still a supported platform for enlightenment and all
the programs I use.
