Noddy dbus example.

Drop yum.conf in /etc/dbus-1/system.d

/sbin/service messagebus restart

in a terminal on the console run

dbus-monitor --system

elsewhere sudo python yum-test-check.py

See the lovely output:

string:('evolution-webcal', 'i386', '0', '2.1.92', '1')
signal interface=edu.duke.linux.Yum; member=updates; sender=:1.10
string:('up2date-gnome', 'i386', '0', '4.4.9', '1')
signal interface=edu.duke.linux.Yum; member=updates; sender=:1.10
string:('cups', 'i386', '1', '1.1.23', '12')
