If you want non-outdated versions, please use a newer suite like stable (currently stretch), which is outdated but stable, or testing/unstable, which is up-to-date but changes frequently. This issue has been fixed in the development branch of dbus. Lennart didn't fix it in the 1.10.x stable branch at the time like I suggested, but I have now cherry-picked the commit for 1.10.24, which I plan to release soon; it will hopefully go into stretch if the release team approve. This is unlikely to be fixed in jessie, because the 1.8.x branch only receives security fixes since the release of 1.10.x, and not other changes. We have to draw a line somewhere - if we backported every fix from stable to oldstable then there would be little point in having separate releases. Regards, S
