- I'm having diffuculty to compile dbus-ruby 0.1.10
   with dbus-0.50.

 - dbus-0.1.10 was complied successfully with
     * dbus-0.22 (on RHEL4)
     * dbus-0.23 (on Gentoo)

 - Is this expected or, it happens only on my environment?

The error message is like:-

Seems to be a lot of constants that have changed in newer versions
of dbus. I started tracking them down, but there were many of
them, and I'm not sure every time which is the correct new name.
Someone with better knowledge of the inner workings probably
need to fix this.
