Bug description:
Binary package hint: libdbus-ruby

I get an 'undefined method' error when trying to use the Ruby Dbus library (0.2.1-1) on Ubuntu 9.04.

Error message:

/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dbus/bus.rb:520:in `process': undefined method `get_node' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dbus/bus.rb:461:in `send_sync'
from (eval):20:in `ListNames'

I have also tried installing the library from source, but the error remains.

This error message is triggered when trying to run any of the example scripts that came with the package.

Reported to the ruby-dbus trac, but I'm not sure how active the project is:

https://trac.luon.net/ruby-dbus/ticket/29
