Given that;

  - the problem appears to be at a pretty low-level,

  - the only known method of circumvention appears to be to reset the
state information held in /var/lib/bluetooth, which is used by the bluez
bluetoothd daemon,

  - that bluetoothd is owned by the bluez package, and

  - even the bluez utilities and tools can't remove these corrupted
states,

it looks a lot like this is actually a fairly low-level bug with either
bluez or the associated utilities, so I'm including the blues package in
this bug report.

Title:
  I can't remove a bluetooth device with bluetooth-properties

Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in gnome-bluetooth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

  In the "Devices" I see a mysterious device of type "All Types", listed
  as an hexadecimal address with bytes separated by minus signs (i.e.
  00-23-...).

  I am not able to remove this device; in .xsession-errors I find:

  ** (bluetooth-properties:5582): WARNING **: Failed to remove device
  00-23-6C-C0-7F-C3: Device creation in progress

  This happens on a fresh lucid install and I never paired this device
  with ubuntu. It might be possible I paired under osx before switching.
