Troy, thank you for your help! And the last question. If I try to build dbus-python with updated dbus-* packages - build fails. And with older (an original SL dbus-packages) - build completed without errors. Is it correct or not? Or it should be without matter what dbus-packages to use while building process?
Thank you for your help again! =) 2009/4/16 Troy Dawson <[email protected]> > Nicholas L.
