I've actually already built a working package for Gnote 0.7.3; I'm currently
hosting my debian/ directory, as well as a binary deb package (which
installs and works fine, and is lintian clean) on Github:
https://github.com/Vincent-C/gnote

<https://github.com/Vincent-C/gnote>If you'd like to use what I have
already, please feel free to do so, but keep in mind that I had originally
packaged Gnote with a QA upload in mind, so you're going to have to edit
debian/control and debian/changelog if you plan on adopting Gnote.

Also, Simon, to be honest I have no clue how to port Gnote to a different
Dbus implementation...I'm actually still learning the basics of Debian
packaging at the moment, so that's a bit out of my league at the moment. I'm
also unable to find the current upstream location of dbus-c++; dbus-cpp
seems to be deprecated in favour of dbus-c++, and I'm having trouble getting
dbus-cxx to build itself anyways, so I guess the only option left for me to
choose from is to disable dbus support for Gnote altogether. Would that have
an adverse effect on Gnote's functionality?

(If Mr. Filoni can port Gnote to a different dbus implementation, then that
would be awesome.)
