Description Javier Jardón (IRC: jjardon) 2011-09-12 15:50:53 UTC 
So we can stop using dbus-glib in GNOME completely (dbus-python depends in dbus-glib)

Also, the dbus-python maintainer said that
"using GDBus via gobject-introspection would be a better long-term solution for GNOME projects"

Lastly, it seems to be a prerequisite for the Python 3 migration. :)

Taking this myself so I can finish the Python 3 work.

Orca no longer depends on dbus-python.
