DBus is a real delight to package. There's a fork of the base
dbus
package for Windows, called windbus, which I made a rather speculative
package from. It compiles but I'm not sure to what extent is works
(also I notice that telepathy needs a more recent dbus):

However this really needs someone to take it in hand and sort it out.
The situation is mostly summarised here:

Rich.
Have you got the non-forked dbus to compile for mingw? Have you
divined the difference between windbus and upstream? I just fired an
email off to Tor, because we both appear to be based in finland.
Have you had a chance to speak with the winkde people? I just spotted
this today, so I don't know what they are using. I presume its some
custom cmake files, since they appear to have msvc builds. They also
have dbus.
