Summary:                    purple-remote won't start because of missing python
dbus module
Description: 
$ purple-remote
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/csw/bin/purple-remote", line 3, in <module>
    import dbus
ImportError: No module named dbus

I couldn't find a python dbus package in the catalog, so maybe one needs
to be built? Binding is available from
http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-python/.

purple-remote comes in handy to remote-control pidgin. We would like to
use it on Sun Ray DTUs where users pull their smart card and the status in
pidgin would be set to away (via hooks and purple-remote).
