dbus-1-dbg 1.4.18-1ubuntu1 (powerpc binary) in ubuntu quantal

 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.
 .
 This package provides support for debugging programs that use the core
 D-Bus shared library.

 See the dbus package description for more information about D-Bus in general.
