Well, that particular version of Ubuntu gets a little, uhm... hoary. ;-)

Not sure, but I guess that the Ubuntu provided apps (which are using
hal/dbus) won't be happy about a new dbus version.

AFAIK the API changed and isn't downward compatible. FWIW, there seems
to be agreement to move to dbus 0.3x for GNOME 2.12 -- which requires
some (supposedly) easy adjustment in the existing apps using dbus.

Don't know if this really helps...
