Any thought about putting the D-Bus patch that Iain wrote into HEAD for GNOME 2.18?

I kinda prefer to wait for GtkUnique, instead of making g-t depend on D-Bus.  Am I crazy?

For the unique app functionality, waiting for gtkunique would be wise, assuming that'll happen soonish. The bug tracking that is bug 378260 btw.

I decided to use the initial patch, using dbus directly instead of via libunique.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
