Hello James,

ok, I found the ticket:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25022

There's no "dbus-c++" on fd.org because I was wrong. I moved bug
handling to sourceforge some time ago. Now I've documented this in the
wiki:

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus-c%2B%2B

I wonder because there's a similar ticket on sf.net:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2701443&group_id=236997&atid=1101684

Are those two tickets connected?

It seems only that libdbus-c++-0.5.2-70009.1.moblin2.patch contains
many moblin specific autotools scripts. And I see changes in the code
generator. This is bad as I don't like to maintain further changes in
the fdo.org code generator. I did many changes in the gitorious branch.
The only reason why I didn't merge them all back to fd.org is the lack
of good unit test to verify the generated code. But I'll take a look
into it...

regards
	Andreas
