Last night together with my colleague Alexey Chebotar (http://rubyforge.org/users/alexey_chebotar) we made a patch to
rbus that is attached below.

This patch enables ruby 1.9 compatibility (1.8 works too) as well as updated specs that could be run on RSpec 1.2.2. 

rake spec is now passing all tests.

Hello, and thanks for the contribution.

However, I don't feel I have the knowledge or time with this
project to fix patches and the like - I would therefore be happy
to let others take over the project if they want to.

If you would like to be an admin for this project, please let
me know and I will make it so. It would be sad to see it die
just because I have moved on...

Thanks!

it's code works fine with ruby 1.8, but with 1.9 i have error

require 'rbus'
Thread.abort_on_exception=true
session_bus = RBus.session_bus
amarok_player = session_bus.get_object('org.kde.amarok',
'/Player')
amarok_player.interface!('org.freedesktop.MediaPlayer')
amarok_player.connect!('StatusChange'){|uri|
  metadata = amarok_player.GetMetadata
  puts "#{metadata['artist']} - #{metadata['title']}"
}
RBus.mainloop

/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.9.0/rbus/message/marshal.rb:137:in
`dbus_marshal': undefined method `each' for
"path='/Player',member='StatusChange'":String
(NoMethodError)

String is not Enumerable anymore. Use #each_line instead
of #each.
When change, rbus doesn't wanna work properly. But work without
errors.
