various problems with dbus-0.92 and dbus-glib-0.71

[frederic heem]

Hi,
With libxml2, libxml2-devel and expat installed but not expat-devel.
The dbus-0.92 build system fails to compile because it cannot find expat.h. 
Another problem is when even if the option --with-xml=libxml is given to 
configure. It ignores it and really want to use expat.h.
Installing expat-devel resolves these problems.
Now dbus-0.92 is installed in /usr/local while dbus-0.61 (the original from a 
fc3) is installed in /usr
Regarding dbus-glib-0.71, it first detects the wrong dbus, the one installed 
in /usr and fails to compile because dbus/dbus-shared.h cannot be found.
Indeed, the cflags -I${includedir}/dbus-1.0 -I${libdir}/dbus-1.0/include is 
not present. pkconfig is looking for /usr/lib/pkgconfig/dbus-1.pc instead 
of /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/dbus-1.pc.
Using "./configure --prefix=/usr"  make it compile, or set  
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
I strongly recommend to the dbus team to have a look at another build system 
such as cmake (www.cmake.org).
Last but not least.  dbus-deamon is not deleting its pid file upon receiving a 
signal INT (CRTL-C).
