--------------------------------------+-----------------------
 using latest stable tor from today:
 Error loading shared library libdbus-glib-1.so.2: No such file or
 directory (needed by ./App/Firefox/libxul.so)

 dbus is not a hard requirement for a fully working linux desktop, so it is
 highly undesirable to make tbb dependant on it.

 according to
 http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/xsoft/firefox.html the
 dependancy can easily be removed by adding
 ac_add_options --disable-dbus
 to mozconfig file.
