Hi Simon.  First, thanks for 1.0.0 and incorporating Python 3 support.  This
is really fantastic.

I'm looking at merging this version over to Ubuntu, but comparing the
resulting .debs I've noticed a few weird things.  I want to point them out in
case they are bugs.  (I did notice that you made some different packaging
decisions than my previous patch, which of course is fine!  The change from
python-dbus-common to python-dbus-dev for example, is spot on.)

I'm debdiffing 0.84.0-2ubuntu3 from Ubuntu precise, which has my originally
proposed patches (both for Python 3 support and packaging) implemented as
quilt patches, against experimental's unchanged 1.0.0-1 package.  There are
some minor differences in the non-dbg packages, but these can be ignored.  The
main problem appears to be in the -dbg packages.

==============================

Specifically, notice the /usr/lib/debug/.build-id directory in 1.0.0-1.  This
seems like a leakage of a build artifact.  Also note that 0.84.0-2ubuntu3
includes /usr/lib/debug versions of the .so's.

I see something similar in the python-dbus-dbg* packages:
