Perhaps you should add the directory containing `dbus-1.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'dbus-1' found configure: error: dbus > 0.35 is required Installing dbus-0.91, apparently successfully, does not cure the error. Is there something I needed to do other than the usual ./configure; make; sudo make install? My dbus executables were installed in /usr/local/bin. I also tried building bluez-utils-3.2 with ./configure --disable-dbus. No effect, same error. FWIW, I'm using the FCE4 desktop rather than Gnome or KDE. I mention this because I get the impression the need for dbus is typically associated with Desktop support. I very much need to get bluez-utils working for simple serial comm to an embedded device and could care less about GUIs. What's the most straightforward way get past this hurdle?
