* debian/dbus.preinst:
  - Fix typo to finally really remove the
    /etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus-1-utils_dbus-launch duplicate

19. By Sebastian Dröge on 2006-03-29

* debian/patches/dbus-python-service-py-typo.diff:
  + Fix typo in a variable name in service.py (Closes: Malone #30043)
* debian/dbus.preinst:
  + Remove /etc/X11/Xsession.d/75dbus-1-utils_dbus-launch when we update
    from something lower than 0.60-6ubuntu6, not only for updates from below
    0.50-2. (Closes: Malone #31998)

18. By Martin Pitt on 2006-03-15

* debian/dbus.{install,postinst}: Install dbus-foreground-console into
  /usr/lib/dbus-1.0, not into /usr/bin, since it's not supposed (and
  possible) to call as normal user.
* debian/patches/dbus-change-at-console-policy.patch:
  - Change default path of dbus-foreground-console to /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/.
  - Use fork/exec instead of system() to call dbus-foreground-console; this
    avoids invoking the shell and nasty shell errors if it cannot be
    executed (like in the test suite).
  - Do not set a dbus error if dbus-foreground-console could be successfully
    called, but returns 0 (i. e. it could not determine a dbus console).
    This broke dbus clients like hal if there was no foreground console (on
    headless machines, for example).

17. By Martin Pitt on 2006-03-03

* Add debian/patches/dbus-poll-hang.patch:
  - Check to see if our data has already been read off the connection by
    another blocking pending call before we block in poll.
    (check_for_reply_and_update_dispatch_unlocked): Code taken from
    _dbus_connection_block_pending_call - checks for an already read reply and
    updates the dispatch if there is one.
  - This fixes e. g. the long startup hang of hal-device-manager.
    (Malone #31517)
  - Patch taken from upstream CVS.
