This is certainly a bug. Someone else uploaded this package without
knowing there was already a python-dbus package in fremantle
extras-devel (apparently some months ago). This created two entries
for virtually the same package:

http://maemo.org/packages/view/python-dbus/ (the newer one)
http://maemo.org/packages/view/python2.5-dbus/ (the older)

I'm CC'ing the original uploader of this package (Johannes) and Jeremy
as well, so that we can remove the older package from extras*
repositories.

As you can see the version number of this package (0.83-0maemo0) is
actually smaller than the one maintained by the PyMaemo team
(0.83.0-1maemo1), so we can safely remove it, I suppose.

Johannes: any problems with that?
