D-Bus reads the .service file, not libosso, so you need to use the
full name here (org.nokia.gpsdrive). The .desktop file might be
similar. My advice is to just use the full name everywhere, since that
is guaranteed to work. Having libosso automatically add "org.nokia" is
a bad idea, since it just leads to confusion.
