Yes, it should be pretty straightforward for you to remove the DBus bits completely - just remove the src/virtManager/remote.py file, and any referneces to DBus in srv/virt-manager.py.in FYI, though I assume (from your email address) you're trying to get this working on Solaris ? DBus should work on Solaris already, and I'm told that there is also already a port of HAL to Solaris.
