It's not just about dbus-binding-tool. E.g. csd-datetime-mechanism.c says #include <dbus/dbus-glib.h>. That'll have to go away as well. We're talking about switching an entire library. Simon McVittie has summarized the options on #895291. If that is too short, maybe we can ask him to elaborate. Helmut
