SailfishOS and MeeGo use *bluez*, *obexd* and the RPM *obexd-contentfilter-helper*. This package provides a single file, *obexd-contentfilter-helperapp*, which is usually installed in */usr/libexec*. *obexd-contentfilter-helperapp* is a shell script (as of v0.0.2), which checks per *lca-tool* if the MIME type of a file is registered (i.e., has a handler), when called as */usr/libexec/obexd-contentfilter-helperapp --receive-file \<filepath\>* (as usual, it exits with 0 for success and 1 if any failure occurred).

Unfortunately this RPM is marked as proprietary, see `rpm -q --info | fgrep License`. Hence it cannot be found as part of either [mer-core](https://git.merproject.org/mer-core?filter=obexd-contentfilter), the [mer-mw (middleware)](https://build.merproject.org/project/show/nemo:devel:mw) or anywhere at the [mer-obs](https://build.merproject.org/project/list_public), and is consequently filed in the [section "Non OSS packages" at the list of SailfishOS OSS components](https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/SailfishOSS#Non_OSS_packages).<br />

But luckily what triggers the installation of the *obexd-contentfilter-helper* RPM can be found (as that is FLOSS) in the [spec file of the *droid-hal-configs*](https://github.com/mer-hybris/droid-hal-configs/blob/master/droid-configs.inc#L91) of mer-hybris, providing a bit of context.

As adapting or altering the *obexd-contentfilter-helper* RPM or its contents (specifically the *obexd-contentfilter-helperapp* script) is out of scope due to their licensing, the *obexd-contentfilter-off* RPM simply replaces its counterpart and provides a dummy *obexd-contentfilter-helperapp* script, which always returns success.
