Let me add the following statement from ffado-devel to the discussion:

   http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=26942187

---
maybe the unbundling of dbus-c++ was premature.  Upstream appear not to
do any releases nor do they seem to have arrived at a stable API yet.
And downstreams have source incompatible versions of it or don't have it
at all.

If we arrive at the conclusion that dbus-c++ is unmaintainable, I'm happy
to re-add the embedded dbus-c++ bits upstream. Though I have commit
rights, we could also do it locally with a quilt patch.


Just my €0.02


Cheers
