Ah, I get it now!  Thanks guys.

Two of the three python scripts are working fine now but there's a 
problem with gdbus-codegen.  Here's the command I previously used with 
the older file (gdbus-codegen.in) :-

      python "gdbus-2.0/codegen/gdbus-codegen.in" --interface-prefix org. \
                 --generate-c-code gdbus-daemon-generated --c-namespace 
_G dbus-daemon.xml

but if I modify that command to substitute the new 'gdbus-codegen' 
(rather than the older 'gdbus-codegen.in') I get build errors.  I'm 
guessing that maybe the command itself needs to be modified now?  Or if 
it looks okay to you guys, I'll supply some more information about the 
errors I'm seeing.  Thanks again,
