actually ELL provides its own D-Bus support. So the switch should towards ELL D-Bus and
not sd-bus. oFono already links against ELL and at some point that should be its only
dependency. We also want to remove the GLib dependency as well. Newer projects like iwd
for example solely use ELL.
thank you for this information. I didn't notice the dbus in ELL, at least not in the
part currently in ofono.
Is this another implementation than glib or a part of it, or is it a wrapper for the
libdbus?
it is a from-scratch and clean implementation of the D-Bus protocol. You currently don’t
see it since the build magic in oFono only copies ELL pieces that it currently needs.
However it is simple change in Makefile.am to also include ELL D-Bus.

Marcel
