We probably had better check that they're completely installed:
$ dpkg -l dbus dbus-shlibs Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ ii dbus 1.2.12-10 Message bus system for applications ii dbus-shlibs 1.2.12-10 Message bus system for applications If you don't have ii by both of those, then something got confused, and the status code may help decide on a course of action to follow. -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Are you an open source citizen?
