sure, fine, but the fact that dbus's configure ignores a valid failure
case is still a bug that will bite many developers (as it bit me) and
many of them will not know how to solve this case (who is gonna read
spec files? really? I sure don't nor do I even have the spec files on my
system to even look at if I wanted to).
So I think my bug report still stands especially since by default, it
tries to build the qt bindings.
that said, thank you for pointing out how I could work around this. much
appreciated.
