This is a dependency for hal.
Adding GNOME and KDE as it affects both of them
0.50 ebuilds include some good cleanage.
This is PPC64. I am running dbus-0.50* quite some time now. No problems so far. so where are we? still stable request? I haven't seen a solid statement from KDE/Gnome herd if it can go stable.
(In reply to comment #3) > I haven't seen a solid statement from KDE/Gnome herd if it can go stable. See the blocking bug(s). I for one don't even use hal/dbus at all, read - can't argue for KDE on the stabilisation, but I'd also guess that bug 113818 isn't really blocked, but that the corresponding hal/dbus versions should go stable at once, so blockers on dbus are blockers on hal as well, if I'm not wrong.
dbus 0.50 seems fine on sparc. however... shouldn't the ebuild contain upgrade info about running revdep-rebuild? since current stable -> 0.50+ breaks the ABI.
Basically this is a coordination bug. So everyone knows what we need to do to get KDE & Gnome in. We're now going to aim for dbus-0.60 because it's the new API and suppose to be the 1.0 API as well... while 0.50 is going to start hitting bit-rot. So get your compilers ready folks.
What about at least latest totem & sound-juicer not building against dbus-0.60+? If we do dbus-0.60 stable without fixing that first we'll get another of those nice upgrade/downgrade loops with totem currently being locked to dbus <0.60.
how can this dbus 0.60 be marked stable when its still in package.mask?
It would seem to be that until it has been out of package.mask for at least 30 days it can't be stabilised - is it ready to come out of package.mask yet? I will start testing KDE 3.4 and 3.5 with it if this is going to be the stable candidate, but it will be at least another month now anyway. It does at least compile with the qt bindings now.
It would seem dbus-0.60-r2 does not create a symlink for /usr/bin/dbus-daemon-1, which would prevent a marking of stable no matter what.

It does not look like dbus-0.60 is ready for stable marking as it still was package.masked last time I checked so please readd us when the month in ~x86 is up and no bugs are open.
Actually it does not. -r2 contained the fix an hour later. -r3 was just a bump to clean it up for those that sync'd. You must run etc-update after emerging.
This bug is here as a tracker as what's required for Gnome 2.12 and KDE 3.5 stablization. This is still part of the dependancy tree for stablization, that's why it's here. It was also masked by someone who had no clue what they were doing.

Ron: Unfortunatly it does not. If you read the source code for Gnome 2.12.2, it's the defaultly used version. There are fallback #ifdef's to use the old API as well. So what I do recommend you do, read the instructions and run revdep-rebuild.

But it didn't work for me ... sory. revdep-rebuild did not solv the problem for me in priviuce versions nor did emerging ths whole system/world. In fact after downgrading dbus to version 0.50-r2 i had to emerge everithing again ...
Because dbus-0.50 and dbus-0.60 use different SO filenames... so programs need to be re-linked against each.
Well, I also ran into troubles with my GNOME and dbus-0.60-r3. gnome-volume-manager obviously does not work anymore, devices are no longer mounted automatically, totem is not able to recognize DVDs, either, even if they are mounted manually. In fact, I did run revdep-rebuild, but the only programs that were rebuilt, were hal and nautilus-cd-burner. I guess, that's not enough. After some investigation, I found out, that pmount for example was also broken (linked against the old library) but it was not rebuilt while running revdep-rebuild. I guess, that there are other programs and libraries on my system, that were built against the old dbus, but not accordingly rebuilt by revdep-rebuild.

Working pretty well on my system too (after revdep-rebuild of course)
sparc stable. note that bluez-libs-2.22 & bluez-utils-2.22-r1 will need to go stable with this.
@gentopia: see the comment on the main 2.12 bug about also stabling >=dev-util/monodoc-0.16 and >=dev-util/mono-tools-1.1.9 Perhaps these are ready to go stable as well? Thanks
I've just put an update on the gnome related bug about the monodoc/mono-tools stuff. See comment #4 on bug #119634.
stable on x86
amd64 done
stable on ppc64
stable on ppc
Removing bug #119737 since ia64 hadn't started the process of stabilizing gnome and its dependencies for the release snapshot.
ia64 done, closing
