Re: glib vs. gdbus-codegen: file collision

Hi Grant,

The problem is really that you are trying to install two packages which
are just not parallel installable.

The solution is to not install the gdbus-codegen package.

For a bit of clarification, the gdbus-codegen package was a
rather short lived module, and it's unfortunate that people might
have installed it on their system, also unfortunate that it was
not created as egg-dbus-codegen or using some non-glib
invasive namespace.

However nothing can be done about that now, just use
gdbus-codegen from glib.

Cheers,
    -Tristan
