sugar-jhbuild can build python already. The problem is that we still

I was reading in the dbus documentation that even the system-level
daemon can be overridden by an environmental variable. So maybe it is
feasible to build our own dbus?
It might be possible. We need to check with J5 when he is back from aKademy.
I think it is quite possible. However, you'd probably need a new system
dbus config file, if nothing else. But here's the interesting part: how
does libdbus talk to the system bus? I don't know whether the path to
the system bus' Unix domain socket is hardcoded in libdbus at build
time, or what. We can certainly change the location of the system bus
daemon's socket in system.conf, but I'm unsure how to point libdbus
there. It's not an environment variable like the session bus AFAIK.
The docs specifically mentioned that the location of the system bus is
hardcoded, but you can still override it with an environmental variable.
(It didn't mention what that variable was, but this was just in the
tutorial.)
