dbus-python 0.80.2 is now available.

Changes between 0.80.1 and 0.80.2
=================================

- - Fixed: a memory leak in which Struct, String, and long- and str-derived
  data types leaked the __dict__ used to hold variant levels;
  a couple of reference leaks in String; a memory leak in Struct.__repr__
  and in the __repr__ of long- and str-derived data types; a memory leak
  in which int-derived data types were wrongly placed on the int free list;
  a memory leak of one Message per method call; a couple of other memory
  leaks (stringified D-Bus signatures, and decoded Unicode objects); and
  some more reference leaks (of Py_None references, but it's good to be
  pedantic)

- - In configure.ac, only use -Werror if the user specifically asks for
  it, for the benefit of people doing bleeding-edge builds from git with
  older compilers

- - tp_dealloc callbacks have been audited to make sure they correctly preserve
  the exception state

- - Files currently solely owned by Collabora Ltd., notably the tutorial and
  all the C code, are licensed more permissively (LGPL/AFL instead of GPL/AFL)
  to facilitate re-use in LGPLed projects. Since the AFL is non-copyleft,
  there seems little point in using a copyleft as strong as that of the GPL.
  Other copyright holders (particularly Red Hat Inc.), please let me know if
  you'd be willing to relicense the rest of dbus-python the same way
