dbus-glib is deprecated, please use GDBus in new GLib-based projects.
But for those who still need dbus-glib:

http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-glib/dbus-glib-0.98.tar.gz
http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-glib/dbus-glib-0.98.tar.gz.asc

(and if you want to get more bugs fixed, please review any of
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?keywords=patch&component=GLib&product=dbus&bug_status=ASSIGNED.)

The "undocumented feature" release.

• Fix the documentation, a lot. We have nearly 100% coverage now.
  (fd.o #37793, smcv)

• In specialized collection iterators, check that the type is correct;
  g_critical and return harmlessly, rather than crashing, if not (smcv)

• If library users register specialized GTypes, warn if their vtables have
  missing callbacks which would cause accessors to crash (smcv)

• Fix production of documentation out-of-tree with newer gtk-doc (smcv)

• Simplify invoke_object_method() and OOM handling in dbus-gobject
  (fd.o #35767, smcv)
