Bug Description

ndesk-dbus upstream is dead and has been forked (https://github.com/mono/dbus-sharp).
The API is mostly compatible, but the pkgconfig files changed (ndesk-dbus -> dbus-sharp) and you should be Using DBus; instead of NDesk.DBus now.

Deferred as dbus-sharp seems to be broken on Fedora 15 (namespace org.freedesktop.* is missing).

Please note that the package named "dbus-sharp" in Fedora 15 is not the one I'm talking about.
Fedora 15 uses those located at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus-mono/ which have been unmaintained for 5 years now. I'm not sure if Fedora has a package for the correct bindings (located at https://github.com/mono/dbus-sharp)

I'm not sure if it is a good idea to migrate to dbus-sharp by now - even though ndesk-dbus is obsolete, it's at least available across distros.
