This happens from time to time, because packages change: in this case file permissions have changed. This is not a problem. You can simply ignore this or change the rights of access manually:

$ chmod -R 555 /etc/bluetooth/

yes, im inclined to see this as not-a-bug - only a helpful warning to the sysadmin - are there any ill-effects of it?

the curious thing to me, is that the warning appears to indicate that multiple packages may own the same directory (or that one package is highly-opinionated WRT permissions of a directory owned by another package) - to me, it has a design smell - that would be a more general concern: "what is the intended purpose of that message generically?", "why does pacman permit multiple packages to own the same directory?", or similar, whatever the case may be
