AFAIK dbus-python is the most current and preferred one. http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-python/ lists two alternatives, but as these are not packaged (yet) I chose python-dbus instead. Can Jenkins use the pre-packaged versions instead of downloading and compiling the tarball? Regards, Phil -- : Ing.
