Patch porting mag.py to dbus

As GNOME 3.0 will remove bonobo, gnome-mag has been ported to dbus:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-mag/log/?h=bonobo-less

So now orca need to use dbus to interact with the magnificator.

Attached is a patch for reference (I algo have it in a local git branch for easy merging).

I believe this issue is delt with can we close this bug?
Comment 2 Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2011-01-09 19:06:36 UTC
Trev, I've not yet committed this patch. One thing we need to decide is whether or not we want to continue to support both bonobo and d-bus gnome-mag for one more release. Maybe not... But for now we need to leave this one open.
Comment 3 Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2011-08-14 22:24:19 UTC
We're trying to get Orca out of the "magnification business" and into a state where Orca co-exists with magnification solutions (gnome-shell mag, compiz eZoom, whatever they use in KDE, etc.). As a result, mag.py (Orca's gnome-mag support) has pretty much been gutted. Therefore closing this bug as OBSOLETE.
