libdbus-1-2 0.62-4ubuntu3 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu edgy
D-BUS is a message bus, used for sending messages between
applications. Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets
and CORBA in terms of complexity.
.
D-BUS supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus
decreasing latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be
low-overhead; messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using
XML. D-BUS also supports a method call mapping for its messages, but
it is not required; this makes using the system quite simple.
.
D-BUS is still under heavy development, but is expected to be widely
used. It comes with several interfaces, including GLib. See the
description of libdbus-glib-1-2 for more information about those.
.
The daemon can be found in the dbus package.
