[csw-users] Pidgin Error on New Sol 10 Install

[Chad Harp]

Did some more digging, looks like dbus-uuidgen is run in the postinstall 
for CSWdbus.  CSWpidgin only depends on CSWlibdbus.

Quick fix for your situation should be a 'pkg-get -i dbus'

I'll get a new version of pidgin packaged up with a new dependency on 
CSWdbus.

Sorry for the troubles, Chad
