If this can be handled sanely then great. There has been a conclusion drawn that for a lot of situations this is a hard problem to solve. It is safer to consider D-Bus being like the kernel. If you upgrade it you don't get the new version until you reboot (e.g. don't restart the bus on upgrades). There are issues like you can't restart any running session bus and you don't even know when libraries will sync up so you might end up being kicked off the bus anyway. -- John (J5) Palmieri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ utopia-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/utopia-list
