Description: simple interprocess messaging system (system message bus)
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.
.
D-Bus supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus
decreasing latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be
low-overhead; messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using
XML. D-Bus also supports a method call mapping for its messages, but
it is not required; this makes using the system quite simple.
.
It comes with several bindings, including GLib, Python, Qt and Java.
.
This package provides a fully-functional D-Bus system bus with activation
support, used for communication between system services, and depends on
most of the other components of the reference implementation of D-Bus.
.
To provide a complete D-Bus session bus, install one of the packages
that implement the dbus-session-bus virtual package, such as
dbus-user-session. The recommended implementation is indicated by
the default-dbus-session-bus virtual package.

D-Bus is still under heavy development, but is expected to be widely
used. It comes with several interfaces, including GLib. See the
description of dbus-glib-1 for more information about those.
.
This package contains the D-Bus daemon; the client-side library can
be found in the libdbus-1-3 package, as it is no longer contained in
this package.
